So this guy thought that he could send ricin in the mail and it would actually get to the President? Sounds like a setup to me.

[Dr. Strangelove]

From what CNN is saying he had written many letter to Wicker in the past. I'm assuming they were crazy letters.

A nice gallery. The guy with the huge backpack and a black shirt who loses his backpack in subsequent pics is interesting, too:

[Professor Tiger]

He looks like a right wing talk radio listening Tea Party NRA Christian member of the 2010 Auburn football team to me.

Wife of ex-judge confesses to murdering Texas DA and Prosecutor...these were cases that were being investigated as possibly connected to the White Supremacist who had murdered the Colorado Prison chief

EDIT: She's now accusing the husband of the crime? They're a nice couple

I bet the bomber is not identified in any of those.

Is a potential suspect someone who they don't suspect now but might have suspicions about later or someone who they actually have suspicions about now but we just don't know for sure that they are being suspected?

The crazy bearded white dude is strong if he's carrying a pressure cooker filled with shrapnel and gunpowder around on his forearm. He's a victim of looking weird and carrying a pack that, like about 20 others in those pics, might be similar to the exploded one. He's probably got a daughter in the race, and is carrying her bag.

The white hat guy is clearly watching the race with at least one friend, and if the crazy security detail guys in fatigue/cargo pants, heavy jackets and earpieces pulled it off without anybody getting suspicious, then we live in a cartoon.

The kid that died was on somebody's shoulders initially. Must have been against the wall when the blast hit had to be standing in exactly the same spot but off the guys shoulders

my money is on the bearded white guy in the red shirt for some reason

[aTm]

Least likely guy.

The town of West, TX blew up tonight. Haven't seen news, but based on one image and looking at the town/knowing the town, my guess is a good portion is damaged and lots of casualties. There's a fertilizer plant there.

[Jungle Rat]

Looks like a BRM fart

[AlabamAlum]

Damn. Horrible.


And good point about older, bearded dude and the weight. A 6-qt pressure cooker filled with nails and powder would weigh 30 pounds. You could carry it with one hand, but it would get heavy.

[Jungle Rat]

None of those pics prove a damn thing. Anyone wearing a black backpack is a suspect.

Based on CNN sounds like they are looking for the white cap guy, and guy in blue with duffel. To me it seems like they were there for a decent period, and acted normal except for having a backpack. Seems like they would be obvious if both explosion bags match.

[aTm]

Neither bag looks like the package by the mailbox that people mention.

[AlabamAlum]

I'm not sure that the package by the mailbox is the bomb - at least I haven't seen anything that states it was. I did see a photo with what someone called the blast site, several feet back.

The issue with both is that there are photos of them later on where they don't have the backback pack - or it appears that way.
