Climategate: Why Don’t We Know Who Leaked the CRU Emails?

Has the Person Been Silenced?

There is no apparent evidence of where the investigation is concerning who leaked the information. Does Hudson know who sent him the emails? Has he been interrogated? Surely, it is easy to track his emails and determine the source. One can only assume that hiding the identity of the person who released the emails is a necessary part of the whitewash and cover-up. What has happened to the concern that drove the 'leaker' in the first place? Was he convinced, as Hudson appears to have been, that silence is a wise choice?

It was Briffa.

Briffa did it in the laboratory with a noose.

I'll take that for ten.

Briffa has not been heard from since right before Climategate hit. His meager Wiki entry is zealously guarded by CAGW orcs. No journalist in the world has attempted to even contact one of the central figures in one of the most fascinating whodunnits in the last century.

It would not surprise me to hear that Keith died in his sleep from a long illness. Or that he was found in a shallow grave by the roadside.
