Stephen Hatfill, H-A-T-F-I-L-L, like all good SAIC contractors, cashed in on the Iraq gravy train. In late 2001, he was commissioned to build a fake mobile bioweapons lab that the famed Delta Force would train with in an effort to help the …

Reportedly, this was not the only non-functioning bio lab Hatfield developed for Special Operation Forces either. He also helped design a similar non-functioning lab for the Army Special Forces to train with in an unidentified Western state…

That they lied about? Oh, that's so cool. All right. Over the course of the investigation, Kay and his team stumbled upon a tractor trailer that bore remarkable similarities to the lab, the fake lab, the Hatfield set up for the Delta Force.…

Wait a minute. So they built a fake lab after they built a fake story. And then they find the fake lab and come up with another fake story that the fake lab is real. Trying to make their fake story real. I hope you guys are following along.…

Afterwards, there was a lot of speculation that that's the whole reason Hatfield was there, is to basically do exactly what he did. Okay. But by the time the U.S. forces were entering Iraq, Hatfield was knee-deep in a scandal that would rep…

So they didn't actually have to say who it was. All they had to do was kill somebody, implicate him, and move on. Prior to zeroing in on Irvin, Hatfield had been dubbed a person of interest as well. Hatfield, you know, the SAIC guy. He was …

In the U.S.? What? Kind of like doing a training exercise in conjunction with 9-11 or the Boston Marathon? Yeah, kind of just like that. The report was commissioned while both men were full-time employees of the SAIC. You know, like maybe a…

Kind of like Agenda 201 in Anthrax. Yeah, just like that. No big deal. And then there's Hatfield's curious background. Upon graduating from Southwestern College in 1975, he joined the U.S. Army. He was a direct enlistment to join the Green …

You have to actually join and then you have to apply. So who was really behind him? After a back injury prevented Hatfield from joining the Green Berets, he left the service. Shucks. I can't imagine what a dangerous guy that would have been…

While Hatfield's service in Special Forces was never confirmed, it does now seem certain that he was a member of the Scout program. It is confirmed that he worked in the Special Branch area. As such, it is likely he participated in these pr…

That was later linked to all of the anthrax scares, but it also cannot be ruled out. One of the more curious aspects of anthrax attacks was the return address featured on the letter dispatched to two U.S. centers. It made reference to a mys…
