BOSTON — Newly released evidence places the Tsarnaev brothers at a New Hampshire gun range almost a month before the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15, 2013.

Documentation and video surveillance presented at the Boston Marathon bombing trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev showed he and his brother Tamerlan spent part of March 20, 2013, shooting 9 mm pistols at the Manchester Gun Range.

Tamerlan and Dzhokhar rented a Glock 17 and Glock 34 while purchasing 4 boxes of 9 mm ammunition from the range. Evidence, including release forms and receipts, showed that the brothers spent an hour at the range and spent $170.75.

The brothers declared on release forms at the range that they had an intermediate levels of experience with pistols, were not suffering mental illness or users of illegal drugs.

1. So that was their mistake! Using a bomb!

Using a bomb made them 'terrorists'. If they had used guns instead, the NRA would have called them 'patriots' and thrown them a parade...

2. the nra supports terrorists getting and training with guns

9. Is everyone a pre-terrorist in your eyes?

just how was the range suppose to know they were planning a terrorist attack?

3. I am wicked anti gun however going to the range was 100%

Legal.

Why is this even admissible?

It is no different then showing video of someone going to the packie and buying hooch a month before the DUI they had. So what, it is a legal activity and occurred long before the illegal activity and does not show some pattern of terrorist training or activity

The crime is the high gun range fees but like it or not going to the gun range is legal

4. The defense is saying Dzokhar was brainwashed by his brother

Prosecution is trying to prove that he was an active and willing participant all the way.

6. The video did not show much at all I get that

The defense and prosecution is grasping at straws on this one

[father founding]

5. the brass ring

They have a weak case and are grasping for straws, without the Tsarnaev brothers, then somebody else did it, how embarrassing.

7. What a fool the Defence was to admit his guilt then?

The video of his placing the backpack with the bomb next to the deceased kid I guess should have been challenged then?


This trial is about showing off all of Law Enforcements efforts and political aspirants taking credit. Guilt if there was any doubt was settled by the defense attorney on day 1.

8. Yes. The defense team is foolish. He is not receiving any defense at all if his "defense" attorney

is publically telling people that he is guilty. I would not be surprised if he gets a retrial on the basis of inadequate representation of some sort or another.

"So what's our defense strategy?"
"I thought I would come right out and tell the jury and judge that you are guilty as hell."
"Yeah. Good. That will probably work."

What morons.

10. perhaps.

Might be a gambit to get him life, rather than execution.
