Another Strike for Tsarnaev

As the Boston Bombing trial continues, CNN reports of a "manifesto" that was found inside the boat in which Dzhokhar Tsarnaev hid while police pursued him. Judge George O'Toole was shown the boat today, and this evidence will be further used in the trial which aims to figure out if Tsarnaev is a "terrorist" or "goofball stoner."Also discussed in the trial was a multitude of Tweets posted through Tsarnaev's two Twitter accounts. Tsarnaev's defense states that these Tweets show the "crass" nature of being a college guy, but not many agree with this statement. After all, he tweeted on the day of the bombing: "Ain't no love in the heart of the city, stay safe people."

I hope Judge O'Toole decides that the writing on the inside of the boat is more evidence that points to the fact that Tsarnaev is responsible for the Boston Bombing. It was his bomb, as this article reminds us, that blew an 8-year-old boy to pieces, for goodness' sake! I think his tweets further this argument, especially when he sickly wished safety on everyone after he assisted in the murder of three people and the injuries of almost 100 times that. I hope they decide this case soon so he can be punished for his crime, but mostly so the victims, family and friends of lost loved ones, and people of Boston can put this horror to rest.
