Tae Kwon Do instructor J. Everett Dutschke was arrested in April for the outlandish crime of sending ricin-tainted letters to public figures and then trying to frame his archenemy, an Elvis impersonator named Paul Kevin Curtis, with the poisoning attempts. The story immediately became freak-show fodder, complete with a long GQ article that went back to the origin of Dutschke and Curtis' rivalry. Today that story continues, as Dutschke has been charged with again attempting the same ridiculous crime, this time from behind bars.
