It was only discovered when his wife called the police after finding his stash of chemicals at home. Among the chemicals was a large amount of KCN (and a bunch of other stuff).<BR/><BR/>Also apparently during the investigation of his house, someone affiliated with the police wanted to test an unknown powder, which turned out to be some of the KCN, by putting acid on it (acid + KCN = /facepalm). Thankfully someone who knew what they were doing stopped them before they gassed everyone at the scene.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
