Cyanide Detected On Envelope Sent to The White House
The secret service has confirmed an envelope sent to The White House has tested positive for cyanide. “On Monday 3/16/15, an envelope was received at the White House Mail Screening Facility. Initial Biological testing was negative; however, on 03/17/15, the chemical testing returned a presumptive positive for cyanide,” said Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary in a statement. “The sample was transported to another facility to confirm the results.” The envelope, containing a milky substance, was in a container wrapped in a plastic bag, according to an internal law enforcement document obtained by The Intercept, which first reported the positive test. According to reports, the envelope had a return address for a man who has a record with the Secret Service dating to 1995. According to CNN, that history includes an incident in which the man sent a package covered in urine and feces. http://bit.ly/1wXUCBa
