Geez, this and the chick with the huge tits is the most compelling conspiracy theory fodder I've seen. No way these kids hated America.
 
yea this story doesn't make any sense to me, both were involved in the robbery, one brother died in a shootout and the other escaped?! how is this possible? I thought the american police were great at vehicular pursuits
 
It's weird watching this news lady on Fox. Her style is just worlds removed from what I'm used to in Europe. It's not the first time I'm seeing US reporting/presenting or anything, she just seems to be adding weird drama to everything she says.
 
muslims in usa r fucked, rn't they?
People already vandalized the Marathon gas station down the road and the owners are indian /shrug

Same shit happened after 9/11. Anyone with brown skin gets immediately blamed here in knoxville. Fucking hate this city.
 
Would like to see legal gaf answer this.
I'm suspecting that they are innocent of the bombing crime, but guilty of the separate crime of evading arrest and attacking cops. You can't presume guilt in the former simply because they are guilty of the latter.

This is why suspected criminals should be captured alive if possible, but I guess that proved hard in this case.

They aren't guilty or innocent. Those terms only have meaning in court and you can't try the dead. They won't be declared guilty or innocent of anything unless a trial occurs (i.e. if one of the victims tried to sue their estate).

Obviously the FBI's case report and history itself will label them as the cause of the bombings.
 
Wait, so the younger suspect is still at large, or is everyone suspected to be involved now dead? What's the latest?
 
And they most certainly already have a judge on call to sign any warrants asap.
Of course. I'm sure they have a stack of warrants ready to deal with the troublemakers. Thousands of law enforcement in the area, so why not put them to good use. The event is the perfect excuse. Maybe they caught him hours ago.

Homeland Security. Patriot Act. American freedom is a myth.
 
I don't get why you guys do this. This sort of thing just begets vigilantism and misinformation and ultimately hurts innocent people, as it could very well already have in the clusterfuck of info that has been this entire situation.

I'm sure the authorities are quite on top of potential links such as this one.

Just trying to verify that it's Dzhokhar's Twitter account. I don't see how that could incite anything against his Asian friend who's already been detained.

EDIT: And it's confirmed to be his account now anyways.
 
BBC got some stuff from the father:
- Boys moved in 2001 with the Father
- Father went home after falling ill
- Younger boy left Chechnya as a babe but the Older boy lived there a while; leaving as war broke out.
- One of them wanted to be a brain surgeon

Father believes they have been set up by the secret services

The police realized the guy has explosives on him and had to pull back... (source: earlier this thread)

This was the DA statement and press conference earlier, may be off since I just jotted it down, but is generally what I heard across those sources:

Quote:
-something at MIT (Building 32? led to shooting of MIT cop (died))
-carjacking in cambridge, kept hostage for 30 minutes
-robbery attempt at 7-11
-another carjacking at some point (?)
-car chase (?), grenades thrown out, explosives maybe of some sort
-shootout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqo1Ad6spkY
-suspect #1 (black cap) dead
-suspect #2 (white cap) still on the loose

Also note that the first suspect was run over as #2 tried to escape. According to news sources now.
