The FBI has now released the official suspects. Looks like 4chan was on to something:

Frankly, I don't think 4Chan was on to anything, considering their suspects previously were a private military group, instead of these guys. What leads the FBI to suspect these two on the other hand is what makes me wonder.Quote:

One of my co-workers was in Boston for the Marathon to support his wife who ran in it.
He said he was about 2 blocks away when this happened. He also said that someone told his wife the day before that since she hadn't run it before she should pace herself, so she was slower than normal, which apparently was good because she wasn't there for the bombs.
He talked a lot about how the bombs went off and people just ran, like a stampede. He said it was very scary. He wasn't able to make calls or text, because he wasn't getting a signal. Likely due to lots of people trying to get through. He said they ended up walking back to their hotel, because the public transportation was down.
I just can't imagine what that must have been like, or why someone would want to do this ( in the us or anywhere).
No. The FBI has never released any leads before this, maybe you're thinking of the Boston Police Dept? The reasoning was not released. But I suspect it is because both men were shown wearing bags in footage, then later shown without them after the bombs were placed.Quote:

Yeah, but that doesn't necessarily mean it was seen on camera. It could have been a witness statement for all we know. :P:Quote:

The FBI didn't have a suspect until Bauman gave a physical description of the man he saw leave a backpack 2 minutes and 30 seconds before the first bomb went off (he dropped it right next to Bauman and looked right at him). That information was withheld until today.
What reddit turned into was a thousand+ man taskforce for analyzing any data made available to it. The FBI intentionally withheld information (and is still doing so). That's fine, but the internet has proved to be quite efficient at rapidly finding people. It's not always correct, but it's much, much faster than any existing police force, including the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc, primarily due to scale. The problem is that you can't do much if information is withheld.
The pictures of the suspects were reportedly to be released early yesterday, but they decided to postpone until today, and realistically they had already had the current footage you see by Tuesday evening based on Bauman's description and the recognition software they were using.
They made 0 progress on identification for over 2 days while withholding information. That's efficiency.
According to the police scanner (or at least people listening to it), two suspects are in custody with another suspect still in a house.
15 shots fired in past few minutes.
Looks like the shootout and the MIT shooting are related to the bombings (so the police say).
Radio chatter has indicated that suspect #2 is definitely one of the two, and apparently they have one in custody but he's dead. There was a standoff with police. The suspects hijacked a car, were chased by police, then were seen to have grenades and potentially other IEDs and considered extremely dangerous. Then they started a shootout with the police. People have made statements that they heard loud explosions.
Can't be too sure what's going on, but the police are pretty sure they're dealing with the bombers and it's not clear if it's just 2 guys or more.
Unsubstantiated information: one is dead (or "in custody").

All this killing is over-hyped to hell. Hundreds of people die in middle eastern countries every week from the same stuff as this. 15 Police officers were executed in Syria and it didn't get one headline.

It's looking like Sunil may not be Suspect 2. Definitely looks nothing like him.
As NBC has said it might not be because they aren't American born citizens, however it's not confirmed that is or isn't him. However, it has been said over the Police scanner once but nothing confirmed.Quote:

What did you think about this? http://i.imgur.com/zFQgPJ4.png?1
I'm not necessarily saying it's him, however they think it is, and some think it isn't. It's all a matter of when they arrest the suspect.Quote:

wait so they found the people who done the bomb and are in a shoot out?
That's basically what happened yes, one police officer is dead, another one critically hurt, and one of the terrorist suspects is dead and the other one is currently on the run after escaping from the shootout.Quote:

Looking at how much activity there is currently regarding searching for this guy, he doesn't stand a chance, last time I saw a number it was 9000 police officers searching for him :P. This guy is so dead if he's found and tries to resist.
From twitter:
Riiiight....
If he's/they're on the run but Police know they did it etc. it's only a short matter of time before they all have a bullet or two inside their head and body. People sometimes get away but it's not very often at all especially with technology advancing as it is. They'll probably have the suspects either dead or in jail by the end of the weekend. Most likely dead, which I believe is giving them a favor, they should capture them and make them rot in a cell for the rest of their pathetic lives.
One is already dead (died last night). And currently they're looking for the younger one (Dzhokhar Tsarnaev).Quote:

His hiding in a boat or something.
They say that the suspect may be pinned down. Also, requesting all officers to move from line of fire.Quote:

They say there's no movement behind or around the boat but the suspect only has a wired fence behind him.Quote:

nvm: "we haven't movement in the boat, he just sat up".
FBI team called HRT using a flashbang now.
"FBI tactical team to launch possible flash bang at the boat."
"Boat might be returning fire. Hold back all weapons."
Had to laugh at this GIF.

He is cornered from all directions.
Why not surrender? You have the SWAT team surrounding you from all directions. You have K9's everywhere, etc.. where's he going?
You've seen from the, news that they fired 200 rounds at the Police last night, and killed one officer. You can see he will not surrender easily.Quote:

Good work. Hopefully they find all the other bombs (if any).
Now, we wait. I heard he had no friends. I also hear fireworks outside...
Nice.

you have no idea how hard it was to play dota 2 while listening to them saying "We got him"
First, I thought it was thunder because we're having a cold front come through. Then, I realized that the guy was caught and people wanted to celebrate. Shit will get crazy this weekend because they caught the guy today, tomorrow is 4/20(happy 4/20 to the pot smokers), and it's Hitler's birthday!

FBI — 2011 Request for Information on Tamerlan Tsarnaev from Foreign Government
Quote:
The two individuals believed to be responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings on Monday have been positively identified as Tamerlan Tsarnaev, now deceased, and Dzhokar Tsarnaev, now in custody. These individuals are brothers and residents of Massachusetts. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a legal permanent resident and Dzhokar Tsarnaev is a naturalized U.S. citizen. Charges have not yet been filed against Dzhokar Tsarnaev and he is presumed innocent.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, age 26, was previously designated as Suspect 1, wearing a black hat. Dzhokar A. Tsarnaev, age 19, was designated as Suspect 2, wearing a white hat. Both were born in Kyrgyzstan.
Once the FBI learned the identities of the two brothers today, the FBI reviewed its records and determined that in early 2011, a foreign government asked the FBI for information about Tamerlan Tsarnaev. The request stated that it was based on information that he was a follower of radical Islam and a strong believer, and that he had changed drastically since 2010 as he prepared to leave the United States for travel to the country’s region to join unspecified underground groups.
In response to this 2011 request, the FBI checked U.S. government databases and other information to look for such things as derogatory telephone communications, possible use of online sites associated with the promotion of radical activity, associations with other persons of interest, travel history and plans, and education history. The FBI also interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev and family members. The FBI did not find any terrorism activity, domestic or foreign, and those results were provided to the foreign government in the summer of 2011. The FBI requested but did not receive more specific or additional information from the foreign government.
New update for you guys.

And yet people say twitter sucks but it's good for getting news from around the world in a mater of minutes, I was sitting on Twitter, Livestream of the news, and the police scanner in Boston.
I think the way you all have been paying attention to this whole thing is not only noble but greatly respectable. It's amazing to see the power of the media, the suspects would've been found out eventually but we have to recognize that the media played a small part in finding them out, all the people behind their computers looking through all the photos and videos and stories and whatnot, that's just amazing and demonstrates just how powerful the media is.
Something goes down, 10 seconds later there's 100,000 people tweeting and posting about it. Just amazing, imagine what our great great grandparents would think (or for some of us what they do think) of today's technology and media.

I read that he's not been given his Miranda Rights because there's an exception because of the public security or something alike, he was also flash-banged and was found by the home-owner curled up covered in blood in the boat, iirc he said he was more sad about his boat getting blood on it from Dzhokhar.
I also was reading a tweet from him saying something about being stress free, yet killing just a day later. One of his friend on twitter is also backing him up and defending Dzhokhar (I'll link soon).
Yeah, he's not being read his Miranda Rights as he's considered a threat to public safety. Which is understandable. But Sen. John McCain is attempting to take it a step further and classify him as an enemy combatant so he can be held without trial, which is complete bs since not only is he a U.S. citizen but it was a domestic attack and not an act of war. But that's John McCain for ya.Quote:

Yeah, the NDAA was complete bullshit. But most of it has already been struck down by a Federal court. As for being tried as an enemy combatant, that is entirely different. This is just the first time a few corrupt senators are attempting to use that exception against a U.S. citizen.Quote:

No. The remaining suspect is being hospitalized for some sort of throat injury. So for the time being, he is unable to speak.Quote:

exaclty its a deseption and they will use this fear to pass something else into congress just another way to get your rights gone
Apparently the kid was a pothead gamer about a year ago, then his brother went over to Russia for a few months. His brother also had jihadist videos on his youtube favorites/playlists and chatted on a few Islamic forums. I assume the big brother brainwashed the little brother into fighting to kill the "infidels."
Sad, but typical.
lol where did you here this? i think your brainwashed a bit here to omuch main stream media?.Quote:

I even heard that he was a patriot and thought blowing up some stuff may make governments think twice about what there doing too america but thats just hear say and rummors. also anything they say about the person on mainstreem media is gonna be what ever there told by authorities and let me tell you this they wont be wanting to tell you he did it for reason of america being bad they would rather lie and say he was a jihadist so you can believe in the fear even more. this fear will slowly strangulate you all the more
Is it sure they caught the good guy? I didn't bother reading through all comments, if anyone could give me a good source it'd be great :D:

Frankly, I think whoever caused this shit should see some consequences. It was a fucking witch hunt, and someone ended up dead because of the actions of the people on that site. It's shit like this that make people want the internet to be more regulated. I wonder how many people have died due to the actions of people over the internet. It makes me sick, why can't people leave each other alone.
How about you read his personal Twitter and look at his brothers YouTube playlists you illiterate fuck. Holy shit, you are fucking retarded.Quote:
