#2802They were part of a sting operation gone wrong (or right) and most of the questions you are asking will never get answered. This seems like the most likely possibility at this point. MSM is pretty much force fed news from the state at this point so them being behind the curve shouldn't shock anyone
With sources way off, and total misrepresentation of breaking news and the factsComment -

#2812With all of today's social media, any information that gets leaked out could be absolutely detrimental to catching this fukk or anyone associated with him. If you are talking about no answers after suspects are caught, then I get where you're coming from. If you're talking about right now - gimme a break. Last thing anyone in a suit or badge is concerned with is letting us know shit.Comment -

#2815Mr Bauman was waiting to see his girlfriend finish the race when a man in a white cap and sweatshirt dropped a backpack at his feet. The 27-year-old lost both his legs in the explosion.
Despite being heavily drugged, Mr Bauman got word to the authorities that he had seen one of the bombers.
He told FBI investigators that he looked in the eyes of Tamerlan Tsarnaev as he planted the bomb. He went on to identify him in a photograph.
Mr Bauman’s brother, Chris, said: “He woke up under so much drugs, asked for a paper and pen and wrote, 'bag, saw the guy, looked right at me’.”

As Mr Bauman was treated in intensive care, he was interviewed by FBI agents and gave a description of the bomber.
His brother said the account was emphatic and convincing.

“I’ve had many times alone with him, and yes, he told me every single detail,” Chris Bauman said.
The FBI was able to narrow its inquiries down to two suspects who were related from tens of thousands of people pictured in the area before the attacks.
The information triggered the manhunt that culminated in the car chase and shoot-outs that shut down Boston.
The Bauman family only learnt about Jeff’s injuries hours after the event.
They saw television images of him being wheeled from the scene, his lower legs destroyed. Erika Schneider, Mr Bauman’s sister, saw it first. “She called my mom, freaking out,” Chris Bauman said. He was working at a McDonald’s near their home in Concord, New Hampshire, when his mother telephoned.
“Chris, you have to sprint home,” she said. “Something’s happened.”
Carlos Arredondo, a bystander wearing a cowboy hat, was hailed for helping to save Mr Bauman’s life.
As the second bomb went off 100 yards away, Mr Arredondo intervened to rescue Mr Bauman. He held an exposed artery between his thumb and forefinger to stop the bleeding from his legs.
“He had no legs,” said Mr Arredondo. “I told him, 'My name’s Carlos, you’re going to be OK. Help is on the way.’ ”
He grabbed one of the first things he saw that might work as a tourniquet – a sweater – which he ripped apart to stem the bleeding.
“That was a whole marathon,” he said. “Getting people out of the way and getting him help.”
It later emerged that Mr Arredondo had lost two sons, one a marine who was killed fighting in Iraq and another who committed suicide.
On receiving the news of his son’s death in Iraq 2004, Mr Arredondo tried to commit suicide.
His life was saved by the soldiers who brought him the news. Had they not intervened, his attempt could have succeeded - meaning he never would have been present at the marathon to save Mr Bauman’s life, ensuring that he in turn could help investigators identify the suspect.
It has also emerged that Joe Berti, a runner who survived the Boston bombs, returned to his home in Waco, Texas - when two days later he saw a fertiliser plant explode, killing at least 12 people.Comment -

#2817And now the 1st character assassination:
WNYC: A suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing who was shot dead after a police standoff on Friday had an “air of power” and an intensity that could frighten, his former friend told WNYC.
Ashley Stackowitz was a freshman at Suffolk Univesity when she met Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of the brothers suspected of being involved in the deadly marathon bombing. He and her roommate began dating.
At first, she said, Stackowitz would hang out with them too, going drinking at bars like the Underbar in Boston. He'd give them rides in his nice car and he would pay for things.
But eventually, Stackowitz said, she felt uncomfortable around Tsarnaev. She described him as the clear leader of his group of friends, with "an air of power." He was "wicked intense," she described, and at times forceful with women.
She said he had a thick Russian accent, but was comfortable speaking English. She said he was close to his family, particularly a sister and his mother, whom she remembered he lived with. She never heard him discuss religion or international affairs.
Her roommate broke up with him, but they got back together, though her friends warned against it. Stackowitz says her roommate eventually started wearing a headscarf and became a practicing Muslim.
Stackowitz said her roommate told her she'd dropped out of school when she got pregnant. The last time they talked in 2011, her roommate told her she'd married Tsarnaev at City Hall and had a daughter. She was considering changing her name to a Russian or Muslim name.
Stackowitz said they haven't been in touch since. When she tries to call old roommate now, her messages go to a full voicemail.Last edited by SBRAdmin3; 06-11-14, 10:26 AM.Comment -
