FBI was shocked when a Judge came into the hospital room to Mirandize the Boston bomber. Megyn Kelly does an impressive job explaining the chain of events and the implications. [...] Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was caught alive but wounded on Friday and charged with use of a weapon of mass destruction, for which he could get the death penalty. The FBI filed a federal criminal complaint against the 19-year-old on Sunday, and federal District Court Judge Marianne Bowler arrived at the hospital where he is being treated to preside over his initial hearing Monday, when she read him his Miranda rights.

Where was she when the SWAT teams were invading homes and kicking people out of their domiciles???
I heard a former DoJ prosecter from Bush's term explaining the legality of this on Saturday night and he was saying how there was a way to consider him an "enemy combatant" but the administration would certainly not use it.
So- he fully expected the man to be Miranda'd and for him to do exactly what he just did: clam up. And- it went down EXACTLY as he said it would. Not sure it is as cut and dry as you seem to think it is. There are circumstances that when public safety is immediately threatened, the Miranda laws do not apply. I forget the exact term for it.
So, for instance, if the bomber had friends that were conducting more life threatening actions- like bombing trains in Canada to the U.S., we theoretically had every right NOT to Miranda him due to the clear and present danger. Now that we have, he can do more damage, simply by saying nothing.
Absolutely right! While I don't like the easy process by which Tsarnaev became an American citizen, the fact is that he is a naturalized citizen and is therefore entitled to every right thereunto pertaining until he is convicted of the crimes for which he is charged.
Wrongo Bongo. He is a freaking terrorist and was afforded all health care rights as a US citizen but the public exemption act was in place and this beyotch had him awakened so he could be “mirandized”. You can’t be questioned in a48 hour period if you are unconscious due to administered drugs.
B/effin/S
So your ok with US citizens being declared enemy combatants?
I’m not. Where is that line drawn? Where does it stop? There is no set criteria for classifing someone an enemy combatant.
(Waving hand excitedly.) Exigent circumstances!
Well, any reference to previous FBI interviews or watch lists will be quickly ruled “prejudicial” and completely excluded. All pre-bombing government incompetence will be excluded. One million people ordered to shelter in place (martial law), that will be prejudicial too. CYA is looking ok all around -that’s what’s really important, that we get back to the “appearance” of security as soon as possible.
If the defense can call Mom then she’ll act crazy on que on the stand too garner sympathy for her son, with a Mom like that how couldn’t you be screwed up, right? Don’t discount it.
Finally, women are already saying he’s cute. He only needs one digbat social media obsessed dimwit broad to hang the jury.
In short, a fiasco.
you know what FBI stands for? Famous But Incompetent.
This guys is doing time. No doubt. Especially with the show that was put on. But, there just seems to be some really weird things going on, to me at least. All the misinformation about how they were armed. He had a gun in the boat, then he didn’t.
But, you’re idea on that Saudi is definitely something to look into. Too bad it never will. Now they’re trying to tear Beck apart about it.
I agree..almost...though I think even with a trial..he’ll be out walking our streets again.
This POS is no more an American than Obama is. They’re all traitors.
NO SH*T!!!
I’d love to strap Patreus, Ham and many many others into a chair and ask them where their loyalty lies and when they gave up. Especially Patreus.
You’d think someone, would have some nuts and do the right thing. But, I guess their pensions, board of director positions and whatever else they do in retirement are worth more than honoring the oath they took.
Oh, they will try all the tricks to slow it up and reduce his sentence, but this guy is looking at Murder one, times a zillion.
However, they do have goodies they can offer him to get him to rat out his friends. The problem is that it takes time, and we do not have time while we are being attacked.
I think the intervention of a judge who had no business butting herself into a heavy investigation like this one gives Becks a lot of credibility now, in light of the fact that Joker clammed up. The left had some leverage in laughing at Beck, but that is gone now and Beck needs to take it and run with it for months.
Sounds good. Not sure that was the one he used though.
I've heard a few more. Some unprintable.
:B)
If only this dirtbag terrorist wasn’t citizenized under false pretenses I’d have to agree.
I’m going out on a limb and saying that he probably doesn’t know much. Just following big brother.
Naturalization can be revoked.
Interrogation for information should have been completed before miranda. The information gathered would not be needed in prosecution.
He is on video planting a bomb that killed and maimed, threw bombs at cops, left bombs all over the neighborhood, etc. That’s more than enough to get him a death sentence or three.
Would be interesting to know more about this judge’s background.
If he does time rather than swinging don’t be surprised when there is a lethal incident in prison.
"Adding to the shock: the sources told Kelly agents were getting crucial information after only 16 hours of questioning and were making valuable progress."
