Slatest PM: Dzhokhar Calls His Mother

Source: Slate

By Josh Voorhees | Posted Thursday, May 30, 2013, at 4:05 PM

Dzhokar Is Up and Walking Associated Press: "The remaining suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings has recovered enough to walk and assured his parents in a phone conversation that he and his slain brother were innocent, their mother told The Associated Press on Thursday. ... Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, walked without a wheelchair to speak to his mother last week for the first and only phone conversation they have had since he has been in custody, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva told the AP."

Mother Remains in Denial: "In a rare glimpse at Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s state of mind, he told her he was getting better and that he had a very good doctor, but was struggling to understand what happened, she said. 'He didn’t hold back his emotions either, as if he were screaming to the whole world: What is this? What’s happening?,' she said. The April 15 bombings killed three people and wounded more than 260 .... Dzhokhar remains in a prison hospital after being badly wounded. 'I could just feel that he was being driven crazy by the unfairness that happened to us, that they killed our innocent Tamerlan,' their mother said, standing by the family’s insistent belief that their children are innocent."

She and her beloved boy monsters are the real victims here. So damned self-absorbed.

How does he think he got in the hospital? Because he was at home taking a nap and someone came in and shot him and then put him in a boat after they deposited fireworks in his room?
Who does he think he's kidding besides his Mother?

I only wish there were a hell so I could pray him into it. I still believe that the dead brother (run over and crushed to a painful and agonizing death by Dzokhar?) was the dupe and this little piece of excrement was the leader. Tamerlan was just too dull witted to engineer the bombing.

Regardless, I hope the trial is quick and the punishment severe. He destroyed a beautiful day, mutilated beautiful people, and killed innocents and innocence.

May the worst curse of Islam (whatever it is, I'm sure it's pretty severe) be visited on him.

13. Unless "Jahar" has a squirrel in his pocket, I can't fathom who the "they" is

that "killed our innocent Tamerlan." Perhaps the squirrel was driving the car that ran the guy over?

14. This press conference was certainly initiated by DTs lawyers

as usual, people rush to premature, sometimes ugly judgments and forget the "innocent until proven guilty" principle.

What do we learn from this report? DT will not plead guilty - otherwise his lawyers wouldn't have recommended going public.

Apparently, for some reason they see enough substance to plead innocent. If you take a look at alternative media now and then (no, I'm not talking about Alex Jones) you get aware quickly that they are indeed many incosistencies regarding the bombings and shootings.

I'm very sorry if people don't like to hear that. Truth hurts sometimes.

The trial against Dzhokhar Tsarnaev begins on July 10.
