Fingerprint, DNA tie suspect to mail bombs, authorities say
Cesar Sayoc, 56, is charged with five federal crimes and faces up to 58 years in prison if convicted, according to Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Officials said Sayoc's fingerprints and DNA were found on a bomb addressed to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and that they have confirmed a 13th suspicious package, this one addressed to Sen. Kamala D. Harris (D-Calif.).
Who is Cesar Sayoc? Here's what we know about the suspect.
Sayoc, a 56-year-old registered Republican, lives in Aventura, Fla., was previously known to law enforcement officials and has been arrested nearly a dozen times in Florida, including a 2002 arrest for making a bomb threat.
