For many of us following the trail of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev the younger of the two Tsarnaev brothers accused of the Boston Marathon Bombing, the results of that trial had all the appearances of a fix. To begin with, it did not seem that young Dzhokhar, like his older brother, was even supposed to survive capture, something which would have obviated the need for an embarrassingly flimsy trial. However his trial had to go forward and many of us looked to see how all the contradictions in his case would work out. Well we didn’t get that chance because at the very outset of his trial his court appointed lawyer announced that he was guilty. Now that this is behind us, Dzhokhar’s aunt, Maret Tsanaeva who is a lawyer in her home country of the Kyrgyz Republic, has filed an argument of amicus curiae introducing FBI evidence that was ignored at the Dzhokahar’s trial, such as the fact that the FBI claims that the backpacks used by the bombers were black and its own video evidence show young Dzhokhar at the scene with a white backpack. A pack that was not heavy and bulging as the FBI claims but rather thin and light weight slung casually over only one of Dzhokar’s shoulders.
Helping Dzhokahar’s aunt Maret in this effort is US based attorney Jack Graham. Jack will be my guest tonight on INN World Report Radio where he will discuss this and other inconsistencies in the case of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. Mr. Graham will join me at 7:30 EST this evening. I hope you can tune in and hear what the courageous attorney has to say about this case.
