Speechless. Horrible, sad, sick. If the story is true that he was being used, PLEASE let them catch the sick fucks that did this. All for a few dollars...
CNN.com - Investigators trying to determine if man forced to rob bank - Aug. 31, 2003
On Saturday, federal agents and police in northwestern Pennsylvania were trying to solve the bizarre case of 46-year-old Brian Douglas Wells, who left to deliver a pizza to a mysterious address in a remote area about an hour before he turned up at the bank with a bomb strapped to his body.
No one else was hurt in Thursday's explosion, which happened in front of law enforcement officers as they waited for a bomb squad to arrive.
WJET-TV of Erie captured audio and video from Wells as he sat handcuffed in front of a state police cruiser. "Why is nobody trying to come get this thing off me?" he asked.
A state police spokesman confirmed Friday night that Wells had made a number of statements, including that he had been forced to rob the bank.
The tape shows Wells telling authorities someone had started a timer on his bomb under his T-shirt, and that there was little time left.
"It's going to go off," Wells said. "I'm not lying." ...
There's a picture at the CNN site of the fellow sitting on the ground in handcuffs just before the bomb went off. I have opted not to post that picture here.
