Tsarnaev, 21, was found guilty Wednesday on all 30 charges related to the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing
His case will now proceed to the penalty stage, in which the jury will decide whether to sentence him to life in prison or execution
Reflecting her state's liberal politics, Warren is against capital punishment
Warren also spoke about current party issues - but refused to compare her politics to those of likely presidential candidate Hillary Clinton
Warren has repeatedly said she will not be running for president in 2016
Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren says she's relieved Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been found guilty of carrying out the Boston bombing - the greatest tragedy in her state's recent history - but doesn't believe he should be executed.
In an interview with CBS This Morning on Thursday, Warren reacted to Wednesday's jury verdict which found the 21-year-old guilty on all 30 charges related to the Boston Marathon explosions which killed three and injured hundreds at the finish line.
'Nothing is ever going to make those who were injured whole and it's been a terrible thing but this is a step toward justice,' Warren said.
When asked what she would like to see happen in the penalty stage of the trial, liberal-minded Warren stuck by her anti-death penalty stance.
'My heart goes out to the families here but I don't support the death penalty. I think that he should spend his life in jail - no possibility of parole - he should die in prison. But that's just how I see it. It's up to the jury,' she said.

'He should die in prison': Senator Elizabeth Warren speaks out against the death penalty for convicted Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
I agree. Next Monday works for me.
He should die immediately from the effects of pressure-cooker bombs.
Feed him, give him healthcare, and allow him to proselytize for 50 or 60 years? He’d be a prison hero to malcontented potential would be criminal muslims.
Fry him... He’s earned it.
So Right.
Oh I thought Pocaheinie might want to count coup then use her tomahawk?
Lizzie’s OK with killing an innocent child in the womb.
She’s against the death penalty for a terrorist a-hole who put a pressure cooker bomb next to a little bomb knowing he would die, smiled, and went to eat a sandwich, but she is for murdering babies in the womb..so terrorists can live but babies have to die
Well, yes, Liz, that is sort of the point of that feller with the black hood. I'm in favor of giving the convicted terror murderer a temporary stay...while they build a nice new gallows.
He should be put to death painfully, and it should be videotaped. Drawing and quartering might be a possibility. Or fed to pigs.
pretend he’s a 7lb baby in utero lizzy
Actually Warren has never said that she won’t run. Every time she is asked answers with “I’m not running for president.” Notice the present tense of “is”. Sure, she’s not presently running, but she’s leaving the door open to changing her mind in the months ahead. If she decides to run, those past statements weren’t lies because at the time she said them she was not running.
Agree completely.
Tomorrow at dawn.
Actually spending 23 hours a day in a cell for the next 50 years at ADX Florence would not be a bad idea if it would be guaranteed he would never be released.
It depends on what the meaning of "is" is.
He’s young enough that he could still be released if ISIS takes over in 50-60 years, the path we’d be on if she became President.
As long as he is breathing, there is a chance he will get out. Some future far leftist might commute his sentence. He might be swapped for Americans taken prisoner by terrorists. Nothing is certain until he is dead.
he should die in prison.
No, he should die in a pigpen. Feed him to hungry hogs.
So Senator, you hope lives a very long life until he is 75 or 80 years old. 3 square meals a day, exercise room, tv , internet best medical.
its A$$achusetts, even if he gets the death penalty, he’ll die of old age in jail. That being said, I think they should take him out back and string him up.
