Montana Mom Helps Fight Terrorists
October 30th, 2007 by MattThe latest edition of Wired has a profile of Shannen Rossmiller, a woman in Montana who gets up before dawn to monitor terrorist web sites in search of those who want to destroy America.
From the Wired article Behind Enemy Lines With a Suburban Counterterrorist:
“She has passed along numerous case files to federal authorities. Her information has led US forces abroad to locate Taliban cells in Afghanistan, discover a renegade stinger-missile merchant in Pakistan, and help another foreign government identify a ring of potential suicide bombers. She has also assisted in nabbing two domestic would-be terrorists and seen them both convicted of felonies: National guardsman Ryan Anderson received five concurrent life sentences, and Michael Reynolds, convicted in July and awaiting sentencing, faces a similar fate. Timothy Fuhrman, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Salt Lake City office, says Rossmiller was ‘instrumental in the successful outcome of those cases.’”
