Wed October 3, 2018 William Clyde Allen III Ricin Letters Mail Attack The New York Times reported that the F.B.I. arrested Navy veteran William Clyde Allen III at home in Logan, Utah after two envelopes addressed to Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and to the chief of the United States Navy, Adm. John Richardson set off alarms in a mail screening facility outside the Pentagon on Monday Oct 1. They were suspected of containing poison ricin but actually contained castor beans, the raw material from which ricin is made. (1) He confessed that he purchased castor beans and sent them in letters (2) The suspect claimed that he'd sent “letters with the same contents to Attorney General Jeff Sessions, the Queen of England, Russian President Vladimir Putin and the secretary of the Air Force.” The letters “included a note that read, 'Jack and the Missile Bean Stock Powder'” and contained what “appeared to be ground castor beans.” told investigators he had purchased 100 castor beans online and that “he wanted to have them in case World War III broke out.” FBI affidavit states Allen has “issued numerous threats” against government officials. In 2015, he emailed the CIA threatening to kill then-President Barack Obama “if the agency did not stop infringing on his constitutional rights”; in 2017, he emailed a bomb threat to Lackland Air Force Base" in Texas; and, in 2018, he sent an email to the Utah Department of Public Safely about “multiple imminent radiation attacks.” He told authorities he was forward to Mormon Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' General Conference (3)
