Ibragim Todashev knew Tsarnaev and the two would talk on the phone, said the friend, Khusen Taramov. Todashev has been questioned by the FBI, and he recently canceled a trip to Chechnya that he had planned before the bombings because the FBI was pressuring not to leave.

“Me and him and my friends, we knew this was going to happen. That’s why he wanted to leave the country,” Taramov told Fox 35. “But he canceled the tickets. The FBI’s been pushing him, ‘Don’t leave, don’t leave.’ So he decided to stay.”

That is a very different issue from whethor or not people are trained to shoot to kill. merrily May 2013 #34

Shoot for the part you can hope to hit. MADem May 2013 #37

Also a very different issue from whether law enforcement is trained to shoot to kill. merrily May 2013 #40

Of course. MADem May 2013 #51

Wow, I hadn't heard about a confession. Laurian May 2013 #41

It's in the linked article at the OP. MADem May 2013 #49

The wrong question? n/t formercia May 2013 #19

According to the OP article, he had a knife. LisaL May 2013 #25

Very interesting. merrily May 2013 #27

They probably didn't search him before an interview since technically he wasn't under arrest. LisaL May 2013 #29

No doubt. merrily May 2013 #30

He was not even "in custody." He was being interviewed at his Orlando condo. MADem May 2013 #59

Good grief--you're not trying to "up" your post count, are you? MADem May 2013 #107

"per the NYT, this guy said the older brother WAS involved" temmer May 2013 #114

Yes, because the NYT sent their Very Best Ghost Reporter to troll for a comment from a dead guy. MADem May 2013 #115

This guy said he was "involved" in the murders--not that he was the ONLY one "involved." MADem May 2013 #53

He said what? Was he read his rights? Eddie Haskell May 2013 #65

Unless you are in custody, premium May 2013 #68

If he wasn't in custody, why couldn't he leave? Eddie Haskell May 2013 #97

If he's not in custody, then he can freely leave, premium May 2013 #99

The interview took place in the guy's house--where I'm sure he had knives a plenty. nt MADem May 2013 #109

Why would he "get up to leave" his own damn house? nt MADem May 2013 #108

Since I am not either the FBI agent nor one of the two troopers at the incident, I can't tell you. MADem May 2013 #76

Bailey did live in Waltham, not in Watertown. Relation confirmed/nT temmer May 2013 #89

Where are you from? Not the Bay State, I take it. MADem May 2013 #103

"A guy growing weed in Watertown isn't necessarily related to a guy selling weed in Waltham." temmer May 2013 #113

It doesn't matter where he grew the weed. The two towns are very close together, MADem May 2013 #116
