U.S.A. Today reports Dr. Steven Hatfill again proclaimed his innocence and denounced Ashcroft at a news conference.

Hatfill has been so utterly outraged since the first day the media published his alleged involvement in the Anthrax mailings, he's convinced us and many others.

At today's press conference he said:

"I want to look my fellow Americans directly in the eye and declare to them, 'I am not the anthrax killer. I know nothing about the anthrax attacks. I had absolutely nothing to do with this terrible crime.'"

"My life is being destroyed by arrogant government bureaucrats who are pedaling groundless innuendo and half-information."

Hatfill's lawyers have filed an ethics complaint against Ashcroft and others involved in the investigation.

As Skippy said today over on his blog:

"Six words come to mind: wen ho lee and richard jewell."

Update: Instapundit tells of us Joel Mawbry's new article on NRO comparing Hatfield and Jewell and saying, basically, the Government ought to put up the evidence or shut up.
