Obama; Hillary Clinton; former Vice-president Joe Biden; U.S. Senator Cory Booker; Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and others including Robert De Niro with the return address of Democratic Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's office in Surise. None of the 13 packages made it to those that were sent too, the packages were intercepted by authorities.

FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed during a press conference that the 13 IED's (improvised explosive devices) were not hoax devices, but could ignite a heat explosion and they are still being analyzed.

Sayoc who is originally from New York was connected to the bomb package mailings by DNA and a fingerprint, according to federal authorities.

Sayoc was charged on Friday with the following federal crimes, interstate transportation of an explosive, illegal mailing of explosives, threats against former presidents and certain other persons, threatening interstate communications, and assaulting current and former federal officers, if convicted on all counts, Sayoc is facing up to 48-years in a federal prison.
