The Canadian woman accused of sending a letter containing ricin to President Trump has been identified as Pascale Ferrier of Quebec, authorities said.
Ferrier was taken into custody Sunday by US Customs and Border Protection agents at the Peace Bridge border crossing near Buffalo, New York, where she is expected to appear in federal court to face charges.
She was supposed to appear in court Monday, but her appearance was delayed until Tuesday afternoon, according to a spokesperson for the US Attorney’s Office, according to the CBC.
Ferrier had been living in the US last year and was arrested in Mission in March 2019 for using a fake driver’s license, according to court records cited by the news outlet.
She pleaded not guilty and spent 20 days in the slammer before the charge was eventually dismissed because it was her first offense, the CBC reported.
On Monday, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police searched a condo in Saint-Hubert on Montreal’s South Shore in connection with the ricin-laced envelopes.
Police spokesman Cpl. Charles said a team of officers with expertise in handling chemicals and explosives led the search as nearby homes were evacuated.
Poirier said there is a link between the residence and the suspect, but couldn’t confirm she lived there.
“The RCMP is assisting the FBI in this investigation,” Poirier told reporters, according to CBC. “We believe a total of six letters were sent — one to the White House and five to Texas.”
Poirier could not say where in Texas the envelopes were sent, but Sheriff Eddie Guerra of the Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office in Edinburg, Texas, has confirmed that ricin were mailed to him and three of his detention staff.
Guerra said no one was injured but declined to comment further.
The police department in Mission, Texas, has also received a suspicious letter according to Reuters, but officers did not open the envelope and turned it over to the FBI.
Stéphanie Félix, who lives near the site of the raid in Saint-Hubert, said she was shocked to find her quiet neighborhood at the center of a major police probe.
“It makes you scared,” she told the CBC.

Woman??

Rachel Maddow is both jealous and in love.
She doesn’t look crazy at all!
Are you ready for Teddy?
Ready as I can be.
Probably not going to amount to much. Lots of rain but some wind but usually on this coast the effects are minimal. That said our electrical grid is not very durable. Will probably be without power for a while. Not a biggie because living here in Nova Scotia that type of interruption is a regular occurrence and par for the course..
I’ll keep you folks posted with pictures and videos if things somehow get outta hand..
Target practice for the next M-16 range…..
World renowned Pimp and Defense Advisor Velvet Johnson released a statement “Da Bitch Crazy”!
Physiognomy…
And a dollop of androgyny.
I never would have considered a meth head capable of this.
The bigger question remains–how the hell did this twat manufacture the ricin?
It’s not like you can just go to a drug store and buy it off the shelf.
This takes an enormous amount of time, skills with chemistry, and equipment to produce.
Soooo… who provided the substance to this cunt? Who else is behind her?
Simply process some castor beans. After ensuring my VPN was active, I searched and the basic procedure doesn’t seem that difficult. You’d have to be an idiot to think the Secret Service isn’t testing Trump’s mail for ricin.
Kurt Saxon had a simple process for making Ricin back in the early 80s.
Easy as pie to make.
My concern is when someone throws a firecracker into the middle of antifa with a ziplock bag full of that white powder taped to it….then everyone would know the so called war the left keeps speaking of just got really real….and then no neighborhood is safe and its spicy time for sure because they are an eye for an eye movement. I do not believe for one second that omaha nebraska bar owner went willingly to portland and killed himself. He was lynched for killing one of theirs and they are keeping that hidden because once the right knows this they will start their tactics….
Were the popo wearing masks because of ricin or covid?
Funny thing about the symptoms of ricin inhalation:
If you breathe ricin, the first symptoms are:• difficulty breathing or tightness in the chest• fever • cough• nausea. Then, you may have heavy sweating, fluid in your lungs, serious breathing problems, and your skin may turn blue. Finally, you stop breathing and die.
Seems a lot like what the msm is telling us about covid.
Not even at closing time in my worst days.
Look at that, you’ve learned physiognomy in less than 24 hours.
Good for you.
That’s not a woman! Please tell me if I am wrong. If it is .. I need to visit my optometrist. Immediately.
“It’s a man, baby!”
Whoaaa. Can’t tell if that’s a man or a woman.
oh, canada.
Yeah, our immigration department needs a lot of work.
He has Ellen Degeneres eyes.
Ellen is also jealous and has a crush at the same time.
Did you hear her “apology” yesterday? She spent all of about 105 seconds-all void of any groveling or contriteness. Then she gets awarded the “Get Out Of Jail” card. Must be tough getting your tit in a crack in Hollywood.
What the hell is that??
Shits given: 0.0
Whatever that thing is, it needs to be bullwhipped to death.
Sure Justin, i’ll do it for you – yeah, yeah, yeah!
That’s a man, baby!
oi, physiognomy’s real ain’t it?
Yes, it is.
That ain’t no woman. Its a tree in a mans body identifying as a female….jus sayin
