Several reports now say the document dump will be later today.
AP:
The chief judge of Washington’s federal courthouse on Wednesday unsealed hundreds of pages of documents in the FBI’s nearly 7-year investigation of anthrax mailings that killed five people.
The move by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth came after consultation with Amy Jeffress, a national security prosecutor at Justice, and as FBI Director Robert Mueller prepared to brief the families of anthrax victims on details of the case.
The documents that Lamberth authorized to be released include at least 14 search warrants aimed at Army microbiologist Bruce Ivins, whom federal investigators were closing in on as he committed suicide last week. The records include the government summaries used to justify the search warrants, the warrants themselves and summaries of what FBI agents seized in each search.
