Scientist Arrested for Smuggling Ebola Vials Into US

Was it Like a Calling Card To Him?

WTF was this guy thinking? He steals toxic tubes from his LAST scientific lab job and after he leaves he brings the Ebola tainted tubes with him – and smuggles them into America?  For what purpose do you think?

My Dad was born in Winnipeg – my Mother grew up in that border area of North Dakota – it is a desolate damn area of the world. So why was he sneaking over into America at THAT particular spot?  Obviously to try to avoid detection!

A Canadian scientist has been arrested for smuggling 22 vials stolen from Canada’s National Microbiology Lab, used in Ebola and HIV research, into the United States, Canadian and US officials said Wednesday. Ronan Michel Yao, 42, “was taken into custody” while crossing the border from Manitoba province into the western US state of North Dakota on May 5, said a spokeswoman for the Public Health Agency of Canada, which operates the lab.   According to US prosecutor Lynn Jordheim, Yao was detained for carrying unidentified biological materials in vials wrapped in aluminium foil inside a glove and packaged in a plastic bag, along with electrical wires, in the trunk of his car.  Yao said in an affidavit he stole the vials, described as research vectors, from the Winnipeg lab on his last day of work there on January 21. via Scientist arrested for smuggling vials used in Ebola research into US.

You gotta know American authorities are checking to any possible ties this guy has with terrorist groups.  This is one to watch!
