Boston Marathon suspects.

Yep. Thought this smelled American.

These guys look like they could be any college students.

Didn't guess Chechen, huh?

I don't get people telling me I'm right more than once a month. Guess that luck's run out for April, eh?

In fairness, they were college students too. Dzokhar Tsarnaev was on the wrestling team with my college friend's younger brother.

No way. Oh, he must be so freaked out.

[ursula]

Confused, I think. It sounds like the people who knew Dzokhar liked and trusted him.

I keep wondering if this is some sort of Shakespearean tragedy, where things go wrong because someone is brave and loyal and loves his family.
