Or an Elvis impersonator anyway. At least according to this.
Why am I not surprised?
I just skimmed a few articles about this, for example this one:
Feds Arrest Paul Kevin Curtis for Allegedly Sending Ricin-Laced Letters Signed ‘KC’ (The Atlantic), and none of them offer any clue as to how this guy is thought to be connected, or why he is a suspect – other than his initials being KC.
I heard on CBC radio this morning that this KC fellow has posted many times on the net and used quite a few similar and exact phrases found in the letters. The letters were also posted in town close to where KC lives.
Elvis is going to Supermax Florence and he won’t be leaving the building. Maybe putting his initials on those letters wasn’t such a great idea.
When I read that a (crazy) Elvis impersonator had been arrested, the first person I thought of was Jesco White.
Is he a Fat Elvis or a Skinny Elvis?
Skinny.
Apparently he has spread his rants to multiple websites. But not here. I feel like the last kid picked for kickball. 
I’ve wondered how a nut case like this gets ricin? Made it himself from castor beans? Bought it somewhere?
Anyhow I’m glad they caught him pretty quickly.
Perhaps he can add a few new verses to “Jailhouse Rock”.
We don’t know that it’s ricin, and in fact the odds are that it’s not. It takes some effort to actually make the stuff, but a positive result from a test can happen even if the guy was handling castor beans when he mailed the letters.
Mailed the letters which contained “a suspicious granular substance”. Letters which contained death threats. I think its safe to assume he was up to no good. I’m no expert but from what I understand its relatively easy to get ricin.
They said that initial tests were positive for ricin, but that it wasn’t clear that the contents were actually dangerous.
Ricin is trivially easy to extract from castor beans in detectable quantities, but considerably harder to purify into a form that could be delivered as a weapon. To actually be dangerous in an envelope, it would have to be very pure, very fine, and treated to make it non-clumping to the point that you might accidentally inhale it.
Since it was described as “granular,” it was probably a relatively crude extract.
Ground castor bean could trigger a ricin detected response.
One of the media outlets said there was an original positive test and two susequent tests proved inconclusive. The sample was supposed to have been sent to another lab for more thorough testing. Considering how “accurate” the media reports have been, I don’t know if I should believe this story either.
Just to be on the safe side, though - Gitmo for all Elvis impersonators.
If we are gonna have a kneejerk reaction, might as well be a useful one!
Elvis may be innocent!
They released him today in bond. Elvis can sing again.
The person responsible may still be out there ready to do this again.
Oh good. I was thinking this story wasn’t nearly weird enough.
And now his conspiracy theories may have a lot more substance.
