People are not happy with Bristol Palin being in the finale of Dancing with the Starsand they are voicing their disapproval is strange, violent ways.
Late Friday night, the FBI and L.A. emergency officials rushed to CBS studios from where DWTS is broadcast after a CBS employee had found an envelope containing a suspicious white powder addressed to contestant Bristol Palin, says TMZ.
ABC released this statement: “An envelope containing an unknown substance was delivered to the ‘Dancing with the Stars’ production office on Friday evening. Security and the Los Angeles Fire Department and Los Angeles Police Department were immediately notified. Measures were taken to secure the area and ensure the safety of personnel. Ultimately, we were advised by the LAFD that the substance was determined to be talcum powder.”
The FBI also stated that the “letter will be transported to a regional lab for further testing” and “a joint investigation is continuing.”
This comes on the heels of a man in Wisconsin shooting his TV Monday night and then turning the gun on his wife in an attempt to shoot her after he watched Bristiol Palin’s performance on DWTS and because he did not think Bristol belongs on the show. The shooting led to a 15-hour stand off over Monday night, calling for the involvement of hostage negotiators. Per TMZ, the man was charged with 2nd degree reckless endangerment and could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
