Security chief recalls Olympic hoax and smart building plan
Hatfield described a hoax incident as the work of two men who failed to cash a bank check and landed in jail facing federal charges. He outlined a downtown two floor smart building that serves as a nerve center to coordinate responses, protected against chemical, biological or radiation attacks. Operatives from federal to local agencies are based there and the site will stay open to show security handling. Hatfield, a Desert Storm veteran, travels between Washington and Salt Lake City and will likely receive new orders. He says Homeland Defense keeps the on call team ready to respond to credible threats nationwide. His family roots are in Odessa where his mother Marilyn still lives.
