They never found who did that. I always suspected that it was an inside job done by local gop members to smear dems. Hopefully with the national eye pointed toward north carolina some journalist will revisit that story and investigate. Local law enforcement are probably republican and if they knew it was an inside job by a republican they would never charge the person.
