4. More likely...
local thugs hired to shut him up.

The FBI is involved. Not for nothing. Dems should be screaming. Pukes, too.

3. Will help identify him to the guys who will be looking to finish the job.
Their previous pictures would have been the 'non-beaten up' Tommy Hook.

Now every flag-wavin murkan can print out a screen capture, and take it upon themselves to find out his home address, and know what he looks like post asskicking.

GO MEDIA GO!!!

Guess they didn't have his phone number to put next to his face, but heck, gotta beat the other asskissing 'news' organizations to the SCOOP!

5. Any hope of catching the bastards that did this?
they need to be brought to justice and punished appropriately.

I hope Hook got a good look at these guys and can ID them. '

Video - MSNBC: Los Alamos whistle blower silenced by beating?

Tommy Hook has a pending lawsuit against the University of California alleging whistle-blower retaliation. He had been scheduled to testify before the House Energy and Commerce Committee later this month about alleged financial irregularities at the nuclear weapons lab.

"They left him in the parking lot for dead," Hook's lawyer, Robert Rothstein, said Monday at a news conference.
