Un-fucking-believable.
I can't.
 
A bit unrelated, but they just had a friend of suspect white hat talking about how they use to smoke blunts together. How can you talk about doing something illegal on national television without any repercussions?

That doesn't count as evidence of a crime. Every day, various people on TV talk about smoking weed.

"Smoking blunts" isn't illegal. What would the crime be? Now whether that admission would give probable cause to search someone for possession is another question entirely.

evidence, someone saying they did illegal stuff isn't illegal (with some exceptions)
 
Really... The aunt isn't convinced that her nephews did the bombing?

She think it's all staged. hah

So the one nephew being shot up and throwing explosives out of his car, was all staged.

What a crock.

It's barely illegal (most places) and legal some places, and he don't care?

CBS local said friends said he was a "pothead".
 
Freedom of speech. You can say you did whatever you want. Hell, our last few presidents have talked about smoking something illegal on national television without any reprecussions, why would we give a shit about some kid?
Not to mention it's not real evidence.

The guy could say he was lying to get attention, you can't prove him wrong.
 
Obviously the media needs to stop talking to the family. They are in full on denial mode. I can't blame them, leave them alone.

There's something else to all the familial stuff.
The suspects' father pretty much threatened if both his sons die then all hell will break loose.
 
Good for them, but considering we have a shitton of proof that they were robbing a 7-11, killed a police officer, got involved in a firefight with the feds, and he is now on the lam with a massive pile of explosives, I'd say stuff like this is of limited interest.

No it fucking isn't. It shows that this was just a normal kid, a popular kid even, right until he went off the deep end completely and committed to something horrific.

It's fascinating. It's easier for people to just assume he's some cold-blooded and born-evil trained assassin right now, but he probably isn't anything like that.
 
Shows like CSI have completely ruined people's expectations for crime solving. Cases and manhunts aren't decided in 30 minutes and you don't need magic DNA evidence to get convictions in every trial.
 
Oh damn anyone watching the interview with this mechanic? Said suspect (I think the older brother) came to pick up his girlfriend's car Tuesday, AFTER the bombing.

This was on WHDH
 
He is EXTREMELY famous now. And with quite a distinctive face.

Well, mostly distinctive.
Seriously, at this point it doesn't matter where he is. It's worst for all of us who are locked down, though.
 
Honda Civic was not canceled, they are two different cars per reddit
EDIT 219 2:18 PM: 217 is the car to look for. 1999 Green Honda Sedan Plate 116-GC7.
EDIT 218 2:16 PM: Correction 216 - Honda Civic was recovered in Watertown.
EDIT 217 2:14 PM: Police seeking MA Plate: 116-GC7, ’99 Honda Sedan, Color - Green. Possible suspect car. Do not approach.
EDIT 216 2:13 PM: From Connecticut State Police - SEARCH & RESCUE 04/19/13 08:16 (STATEWIDE - CSP ALL FREQ.) BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A GRAY/SILVER HONDA CIVIC WITH MAS. REG 31CE9 WANTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE BOSTON BOMBINGS [CON031].
 
It's hilarious, and predictable, seeing people trying to associate these guys as Russians and not Muslims.

As if these acts were done for glorious Mother Russia (most Chechens HATE Russia and want nothing to do with Russia) and not based on verses from the Quran.
 
Sounds like his family and some of his friends are in denial. Can't say I blame them at this point, it is not like you ever think someone close to you is a killer/murderer/terrorist.

But eventually the evidence will wear down most of their denial. Some of them may always blame someone else, I see people blame others for everything that goes wrong all the time. Some people just never get that accountability and responsibility thing down.

What a crock.

She could be in a stage of denial...which would be common if she loved her nephews...

I mean you want to tell yourself its not true when it really is
 
Huh, that is interesting.
If they can theoretically prosecute a dead man, I would very much like to see it done in this case as well so that justice can be done.

The deceased body will server a sentence in prison for a period of 100 years?

There's no point. Also who will defend a dead man in court?

Oh, from a human interest angle maybe. I meant more from a culpability standpoint.
 
Media reporting we are looking for a Honda Civic reg 116GC7, please note that we have that car. We are not looking for it. BOLO recalled
Tweet from Mass State Police
 
Justice has been done. He is dead. What purpose would be served by a show trial of a dead defendant?

That is not justice, that is only revenge.
Justice would be to finding him guilty beyond doubt in a court of law.

Even if it is just a show trial and no sentence can be handed out, it would be a testament to the justice system of the USA.
 
I dont know why but not much annoys me more than people popping into this thread with "hay guyz, i just turned on the internet. OUTLINE EVERYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED." Fuck me, go to a web page, yse google, anything!

Bothers me more than kneejerk speculation and internet detective work (wait, that's the same thing)
