I read a great deal of details about this case a long time ago, and it doesn’t seem to me that there is anything new revealed within the body of that article. But it does have a link to a detailed application for a search warrant (.pdf) that I don’t believe was released until relatively recently.
An upcoming movie (a comedy, no less!) has some similarities to the case, too: HuffPost - Breaking News, U.S. and World News | HuffPost
From the HuffPost link: The movie’s handlers acknowledge the screenwriters were “vaguely” aware of Wells, but say the movie - in which two ne’er-do-wells force a pizza driver to rob a bank while wearing a time bomb vest - isn’t based on the infamous Pennsylvania collar-bomb case, and especially Wells’ grisly, tragic death.
Nah, of course not. Why would anyone think it’s based on an extremely notorious crime that was covered extensively in the press, TV, radio, etc.? :rolleyes: Since when do screenwriters take the painful details of someone else’s tragedy and warp them into a wacky comedy for the purposes of obtaining filthy lucre. Never, I say! Never!
Cheezncrakrz! Some people are so cynical!
