And bioweapons scientist Steven Hatfill is suing the Justice Department and FBI. He accuses the government of smearing his name during the investigation of the anthrax attacks of 2001. Hatfill has been identified as a person of interest in the case and the government has been closely monitoring him for months. Hatfill’s lawyers said the government “embarked on a highly public campaign to accuse Dr. Hatfill without formally naming him a suspect or charging him with any wrongdoing.”
