BOMBING AT BOSTON MARATHON-GRAPHIC PHOTOS

I still believe they will send him to death row and they will do it in record time.

Yeah, I think a death penalty verdict will be delivered within the next couple of court days. It took much longer to qualify a death-penalty jury than it did to try Tsarnaev in Federal court.

Casey Anthony isn't an apples to apples comparison -- she wasn't even convicted, so there was no death penalty deliberation. Jodi Arias isn't really a fair comparison either, she claimed and produced evidence (falsely, IMO) that her victim had victimized her and the jury had to consider those mitigating factors.

Tsarnaev's case is closer to that of Timothy McVeigh, in my opinion -- slaughtering/maiming a bunch of vulnerable unsuspecting civilian strangers to make a political statement and gain glory for themselves. Terrorism.

I don't think the Defense's claim that Dzhokhar was forced or brainwashed into those criminal actions by his older brother was proven (or convincing, at all).


Tsarnaev's lovely mother ^ contends that the guilty verdicts against her son should be levied against America, that America is the real terrorist and everybody knows it. She says her "precious boy" is the best of the best. Sounds like she's proud of her sons' terrorists acts; not surprising she was on the terrorist watch list for years before the Boston bombing.
