MIAMI (AP) - NASA has released more than 200 pages of e-mails
related to the case of an astronaut accused of trying to kidnap her
romantic rival. The communications mostly only hint at the
relationships between people involved in an apparent love triangle.
The documents include e-mails between former astronaut Lisa
Nowak and the object of her affection, astronaut William Oefelein. There are e-mail also between him and a woman he
was involved with, Air Force Captain Colleen Shipman, a few of
which are notably steamy. Authorities say Nowak stalked Shipman - driving from her home in
Texas to Florida - and tried to get into Shipman's car, later
attacking her with pepper spray.
NASA posted the series of e-mails on a Web site on Wednesday.
Nowak spokeswoman Marti Mackenzie said a statement would be
issued.
The Associated Press could not reach Oefelein for comment. A
number listed in his name near the Johnson Space Center in Houston
had been disconnected.
