All of us, who believe Dr. Scher to have done something murderously bad, are interested in seeing the specific language of the threat. None of us (that I know of) would ever have considered writing an email that would so certainly undermine our cause to expose wrong-doing in the FDA. I wouldn't be surprised to find the email had a tracking number -- something similar to "HFM-A.O 7-2571".

Can we focus more on the known facts of the grossly overlooked conflicts of interest and the "leaked letters" that Von E, the FDA chair denies ever receiving??? Recall, Martha Stewart served jail time for less serious actions! A.

Caretolive and arighttolive should have said they were going to publish the letter. We don't want to stoop to the Scher/Hussein level. I was one of those who requested the letter that is above.

Also don't forget the exchange of mail between the conflicted doctors and public servants! Some mails were directed to the FDA Commissioner, Dr. Andrew von Eschenbach, who says he did not receive them! That's a red flag! As an aside, the two cancer docs say they received threats, but to date there's no proof! Did they say they received threats to attract sympathy? Regards, phil Hi Ed,
