Synopsis by Jeff Gemmill
This installment of Frontline investigates the 2001 anthrax attacks on the U.S. Senate offices, network news divisions and a tabloid newspaper. In 2008, the FBI pinned responsibility on Army scientist Bruce Ivins after Ivins committed suicide. This report, however, questions the FBI's investigative methods and whether Ivins really did it.
