“WHO’S WHO IN THE ALLEGED BOSTON BOMBERS’ FAMILY — AND HOW ARE THEY RESPONDING? HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR”
Apr. 19, 2013 3:45pm Billy Hallowell
SNIPPET: “Globe reporter Mark Arsenault goes on to confirm some of the details in our previous post — that Tamerlan, who was killed last night, was a talented boxer who wanted to join the U.S. Olympic team. He had hopes of being an engineer and had studied at a local community college.”
SNIPPET: “Other captions depict the elder Tsarnaev as a Muslim who abstains from alcohol and is bewildered by the immorality of the surrounding American culture.
Reports are that Tamerlan traveled to Russia for six months back in 2012. It’s unclear whether this trip has anything to do with his alleged involvement in the attack.
Dzhokhar, too, seemed to have a bright and promising future. As we noted, he won a scholarship and graduated from a well-known school called Cambridge Rindge & Latin School. He’s also allegedly studying at a local college.”
SNIPPET: “Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the AP notes, was registered as a student at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.”
SNIPPET: “The Tsarnaev brothers purportedly came from Chechnya, an area of Russia that has long struggled with Islamic extremism, but considering that they’ve been in America for quite some time, investigators don’t yet know why Tamerlan and Dzhokhar allegedly orchestrated this attack (the Daily Mail reports that Dzhokhar was born in Kyrgyzstan).”
SNIPPET: “RT apparently contacted a school in the Russian Republic of Dagestan, where the family is also said to have lived for a short time. A representative from the educational facility said that the family moved to Dagestan from Kyrgyzstan in 2001 and that Dzhokhar didn’t make an impression, good or bad.”
“He arrived at our school in the first form and departed in the second,” secretary Irina Bandurina told the outlet. “They arrived from Kyrgyzstan and departed to the US. I’m telling you they lived here for a year — not the whole year. They arrived at the school in 2001 and departed in March 2002””
SNIPPET: “In addition to the two brothers, there are two sisters in the family, named Bella and Amina.”
SNIPPET: “Two sisters of the Boston bombing suspects Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev have been identified as West New York residents Bella Tsarnaeva (spelled with an “a”) and 22-year-old Ailina Tsarnaev. The latter is reportedly cooperating with the police and has expressed shock and sorrow over her brothers’ actions.”
SNIPPET: “And it seems one of the brothers’ aunts has spoken out as well. During an interview with reporters that aired on CNN and other stations, she seemingly confirmed that at least one of the alleged bombers was a Muslim.
When asked if her nephews were “devout practicing Muslims,” Maret Tsarnaev replied: “He was not devout.”
“But just recently, maybe two years ago, he started praying about five times a day, which I don’t see anything bad in it,” she said from outside her Toronto home.”
SNIPPET: “She confirmed that she was talking about “Suspect 1,” Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26.”
SNIPPET: “Maret went on to note that she is used to being setup and that and that she experienced this dynamic regularly when she lived in the Soviet Union.
“I am a Chechen. I have to prove myself twice — triple times more than Kyrgyz or Kazakh who live on their own land,” she continued.”
SNIPPET: “And her other alleged son, Tamerian, was purportedly arrested for domestic assault and battery after purportedly abusing his girlfriend in 2009.”

“I’VE MET THE BOSTON BOMBERS”
By Alyssa Lindley Kilzer
Posted April 19, 2013
SNIPPET: “I started getting facials from Zubeidat Tsarnaeva (pronounced Zu-bey-da) six years ago when I was 17 at a spa in the Boston area. She soon after left the spa and contacted my mom to have us start coming to her house, at 410 Norfolk St., right on the line of Cambridge and Somerville. All throughout my senior year of high school and four years of college I went to her house about three times a year. The last time I went to the house was in December and January of 2011/2012.”
SNIPPET: Between 2008 and 2012 I got to know her pretty well. During those 2-3 hours I spent a lot of time asking her about her personal life, background and her family. (I’m a writer and tend to ask people exhaustive questions about their personal lives, especially as interesting a character as this.)”
SNIPPET: “In my last year of college I was getting a facial from her, and asking her about why she had originally come to the United States with her family about eight or ten years previously. She told me that she and her husband had been lawyers and political activists in Russia. They had fled the country after “something that her husband did.” Her daughter had recently been divorced at this time, and her daughter’s ex-husband had taken their child to Russia, refusing to return him. Finally the child was returned. When my mom asked Zubeidat how they had gotten the child back, she told her that “my [Zubeidat’s] husband is crazy” and everyone knew it. When he threatened the daughter’s ex-husband’s family, they returned the child. During this facial session she started quoting a conspiracy theory, telling me that she thought 9-11 was purposefully created by the American government to make America hate Muslims. “It’s real,” she said, “My son knows all about it. You can read on the internet.” I have to say I felt kind of scared and vulnerable when she said this, as I am distinctly American, and was lying practically naked in her living room.
Throughout my years of knowing Zubeidat I certainly had more contact with her daughters, one of whom attended the Catherine Hinds Institute and aspired to open a spa, and Dzhokar, than with the older brother Tamerlan. Those three children were always friendly and kind to me. I think I only met Tamerlan twice, and he wasn’t friendly.”
SNIPPET: She made one long trip to Russia in the period of 2011-2012.”
SNIPPET: “Articles online suggest that she is in Russia because of her husband’s poor health. I know that her husband often went to Russia without her, and for extended periods of time. She was also very close with her sons and showed many signs of political leanings herself. Of course this is only my personal conjecture, and to my knowledge there is no proof about the parent’s involvement at all.”
SNIPPET: “The actions of the two men have been atrocious beyond words. I wrote this story in order to help clarify some of the untruths I read online during the past few days, and I hope that any knowledge I have shared about the family can help investigators get to the bottom of these terrorist actions and not cause any further harm.”

“Older Suspect Described As Controlling, Manipulative”
LAURA SULLIVAN and ROBERT SIEGEL
April 19, 2013 8:34 PM
SNIPPET: “Laura Sullivan tells Robert Siegel that she has been learning more about the older suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev. She’s been talking with three women who knew him when they were in college — and they paint a dark picture.”
“Feds: Alleged Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev allegedly made damaging statement during visit with sister”
By Martin Finucane / Globe Staff / February 28, 2014
SNIPPET: “During a prison visit with his sister, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the accused Boston Marathon bomber, made a damaging statement that was overheard by an FBI agent, federal prosecutors said today in a court filing.”
SNIPPET: “Prosecutors disclosed in the filing that Tsarnaev’s attorneys requested in December that Tsarnaev be able to meet with each of his sisters. Since then, Tsarnaev has received two social visits. Such non-legal visits are restricted to one immediate family member under the special restrictions, prosecutors said.”
