If they had a note containing a full confession surely it would be in the authorities interests to reveal information about it as soon as possible?
As I said, I too am interested in seeing it authenticated and don't believe everything that I hear/read.
Having said that, it's truly ignorant to assume that there's a conspiracy because alleged evidence isn't made public from the get-go.
Why would/should authorities reveal everything that they've got during the course of the investigation and before trial? They were rightfully still trying to determine if there were others involved with the brothers in the attack for weeks (and may still be).
In any investigation, some things are released, leaked, or uncovered by the media while others remain sealed til pleading/trial for a myriad of legal and strategic reasons.
You can hold onto the presumption that the man who acted with his brother in killing 3 innocent people and maiming over a hundred more would have been too smart to write a note admitting to it (and thus authorities must be lying). I'm gonna wait for more information.
If he did write it, why? For the same reason that he committed mass murder in the first place; to be legitimatized/recognized by the fundamentalists that he was trying to impress. IMO, he thought he was dying, he almost did die. He wanted to ensure that he and his brother were credited for the killings.
To me, the mass murder itself contradicts that this guy was "too smart" to do anything. He's an 'effin dipshit.
