Edward Bachner, 38, pleaded on Aug. 2 of having a large quantity of deadly neurotoxin that he intended to use as a weapon in a scheme to collect life insurance money from unsuspecting victims.
He was charged with unlawfully acquiring and possessing an exotic and deadly neurotoxin, Tetrodotoxin (TTX) and intended to use it as a weapon on five separate occasions between 2006 and 2008 in an attempt to get millions from insurance companies.
Bachner admitted in the plea agreement that he purchased a $20 million life insurance policy on an individual identified in the plea agreement only as “Individual A.” Bachner planned to collect “Individual A’s” life insurance proceeds, said the FBI.
