Maybe he went south and drowned in that very wide river.

Could be. Does’nt seem like they thought they would be fingered.It’s good to have a plan if that happens.

Snip: “Didn’t seem like much of an escape plan last night”

I don't think there was a plan but more of a big oh crap moment. I think they were surprised by the release of their pictures and it blew their plans as they had seven or eight IEDs back home. They panicked. Started walking fast and talking and oh crap that cop knows it's us. Bang bang, dead MIT officer. More panic. What have you done. We need to get out of here. Carjack the first likely car and get a little cash. Run. Then the chase and firefight.

IMO They know where he is and know his condition. Today not only kept the people of the community in place, but it also kept all potential cell members in place and gave the FBI time to connect those members by analysis of the social media. When they start moving FBI and State police will gather them up.

Reports of blood found thou out the day indicates IMO not only that he was wounded but with each hour without medical treatment was in a weakened state and closer to bleed out

Actually, yes. I was up listening to the scanner as this went down. It was complete chaos with explosions, gunfire and officers down. Officers were heard begging for other to come and set up the perimeter

Busted.

FBI amends earlier assertion to Bob Orr that they had no prior contact w/ Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the bomb suspect killed in standoff - @CBSNews

@CBSNEWS: FBI now acknowledges they interviewed Tsarnaev 2 yrs ago at request of a foreign country about possible extremist ties.

Didn’t seem like much of an escape plan last night when the brothers were killing the MIT cop, driving his cruiser, carjacking ... if they really wanted to escape they could have quietly left Boston days ago. Sounds to me more like they wanted to go out in a blaze of glory, but the younger one chickened out.

this is exactly what happened. they figured it was only time before someone recognized them from the FBI presser several hours earlier and felt against the wall and decided to go out big.

I’m wondering now about Beck’s comment that if the govt didn’t admit the truth by monday he would.

Maybe this Saudi guy was their controller or conduit of some sort. He didn’t plant the bombs but he helped them out and was a part of this.

“He also has killed LEO. The reality is that if someone is capable of blowing up kids and killing cops they are viewed as a special kind of dangerous and therefore the response by LE is going to be bigger than if they killed someone in a car jacking or 7-11 clerk for some cash.”

Cops get killed all the time. Yes, the force used to bring in the killer is higher than for an average citizen.

But then, why are they pulling out and stopping the search after the warrentless searches in Watertown are done?

The cop is still dead. Do you just stop the massive man hunt after the houses are searched?

You can bet the Saudis are involved in one way or the other.

Exactly right. I listened also. That is why this monday morning QBing and armchair conspiracy mongering gets under my skin. People died today and this is real. I dislike the kenyan plenty but first things first.

Do you have a link to BG saying that, in context? Telling the truth about what?

I was just thinking crazy thoughts due to a crazy week.....would be nice for the media to actually do a random act of journalism in this case.
