'Bomb' Package at Federal Building Is Pornography

BY DAVID FALCHEK THE SUNDAY TIMES 02/09/2003


With the nation on high alert against a terrorist attack, the discovery of a mysterious
package at Scranton's federal courthouse brought out the city's bomb squad and closed
several downtown blocks Saturday night.

The package turned out to be harmless.

The briefcase-sized box, wrapped in what appeared to be a green garbage bag and left at
the entrance of the William J. Nealon Federal Building in the 200 block of North Washington
Avenue, was full of pornographic magazines and videos. A note on the package was
addressed to U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft.
