Case Story |
|
| |
Car Bombing Nearly Kills 21 Year Old |
|
| |
On July 12, 2002, 21-year-old Wright Sigmund went into the garage under his father's insurance office in northwest Washington, D.C. to run an errand for his father. Unknown to him, police say the car was booby-trapped with one or more explosive devices, including a pipe bomb underneath the seat. Police say the explosives were detonated when Wright turned the key in the ignition. Miraculously, Wright survived, but with disfiguring and nearly mortal wounds. Investigators were convinced the bomb was actually meant for Wright's 62 year old father, Donald, and that it had been planted within the week. |

On July 15, three days after the nearly fatal explosion, Donald's oldest son and Wright's half brother, Prescott, disappeared. Thirty-five-year-old Prescott was known as an affable, mild-mannered, suburban, father of two. The intense investigation surrounding the bombing brought to light his secret, double life. Police say Prescott had apparently been fired seven months before, but pretended to work every day. According to officials, his wife then discovered he had raided her retirement funds, taken out credit cards in his parents names, and left the household bills unpaid for months. |

In October of 2002, federal authorities were able to show probable cause to charge Prescott Sigmund with the bombing. Through the affadavit is under seal, investigators say it includes both circumstantial and forensic evidence that ties Prescott to the bomb. He's still on the run. |
