written for "the battle against abortion;"
It was discovered by police, buried in Shannon's
backyard. The manual provides instruction on how
to disrupt and even destroy abortion operations.
The chapters range from prank-like blocking a
clinic's parking lot with garbage to details on
how to make plastic explosives and home-made detonator
caps. Excerpts from the Manual:
Letter
#1 marked Exhibit "A"
Letter to daughter,
Angi, shortly after Shannon was arrested for the August 19, 1993 shooting of Dr. Tiller. Describes how she shot
Tiller, her flight and apprehension. Warns daughter
not to "dig up my stuff" - which gave
the police clues about where
her diaries, Army Of God manual, and other evidence
was hidden.
Letter
#2 marked E-2-22
In a letter to her daughter from jail Shannon
instructs Angi how to dispose
of "things," and recounts the shooting
in great detail.
Letter
#3 marked Gov. Exhibit #25i
Letter to "Ang" from jail where Shannon
urges her daughter to mail documents to "my
Russian pen pal." Investigators suspect that
the "pen pal" might
have been someone in league with
Shannon to attack abortion clinics
and their personnel.
Article
