Quote: "Sandford had worked for Anderson at Marietta College prior to taking a similar position at OU in 1999. That same year, Sandford installed a secret server, known as "Caleb," on the Marietta College campus, to which only he and Anderson had access."

"Several months before his death in March, Sandford told OU officials that someone had attempted to poison him with a tainted batch of cookies left in his vehicle.

PRELIMINARY TOXICOLOGY REPORTS on Sandford's death found the presence of the plant fertilizer as well as rat poison, which was reported to have been in the batch of cookies. Washington County authorities have yet to release their final report on Sandford's death."
