Two explosions reported at Boston Marathon finish line! **Suspect #2 in Custody!!**

wcvb: officials may be playing they know more than they do

pot calling the kettle black

 

[spidey07]

Possible scenarios being thrown around are they are doing this and with the van to get other suspects to "move".

pot calling the kettle black

Not a bad tactic actually (for the investigators I mean)

If the real bomber thinks they have someone, he might be angered that someone else got the attention, he may make some sort of claim.

or if he thinks that they are close to catching him, he might make a mistake of some kind under the stress.

wcvb: we always try to confirm info with 2 or 3 sources

twitter, redit and 4chan are apparently valid

CNN keeps looping these 2 things:

1. Footage of that guy running away, stating that their sources say it is a person of interest.

2. The picture of that bag laying next to the mailbox on the road. I can't understand how that could have been the bomb without injuring a lot more people in the race.

CNN is really losing their shit on this one. It's like the national enquirer on that channel today.

It's not the bomb. The person standing above that bag is handing out water bottles. You can see the bottles in her arms.

Look to the right of the van, it's not those guys.

Someone in defense of them also said they were military / security / event staff. Clearly not that either if they're just standing there with all that going on at ground zero.

Private security for someone running the race maybe? Would at least explain why they are hanging out at the finish line...

I agree, that's what I see too, but for some reason they keep saying that is the 2nd bomb, and it's why the mailbox was bent after it went off.

what? those 2 are very obviously security. as for "just standing there" you have absolutely no idea what they are doing or are supposed to do. do you expect them to change in a phone booth or something?

Shortylickens would like to comment for his hurtful, offensive comments earlier.

It was never my intention to disparage any muslims, arabs, or IMGURians in this thread. My comment was a general one about all the folks on the rest of the internet jumping to conclusions.


Thank you.

The bomb was behind the fence.

There are pics taken closer in time to the event, of the same spot, and that woman is still there, but the bag is gone. The bag was gone before the blast. Most likely because she ran out of water bottles.

They are remaining at their post, like they are supposed to.

They are likely observing the crowd as well, for anyone suspicious.

if looks can't deceive... maybe they should be putting devices on kids then and TSA will just let them mosey on through because they are just kids. Oh wait. I wonder why they HAVE TO screen everyone.

In this vid, scroll down, you can see that the bag is not on the ground there when the blast happens.

The woman is still there.

The man behind the mailbox is one of the persons of interest.

I was impressed with the 4chan analysis.

haha what the hell ever. i know a cop when i see one.

have you called the tip line with your important discovery?

that is some world-class stupid crap right there

"this guy is looking in a different direction"

so?

"no backpack" (only head visible)

yeah

"sagging bags"

almost as if there was something inside it.

"this guy was running away"

you bet

"this guy WAS NOT running away"

uh huh

and of course, the 2 low profile security guys
"same skin tone"

the white guy has the same skin tone as the brown guy. sure.


just because morons and children have a voice does not mean it should be listened to. please stop with this garbage.

You never disappoint.

1. The media coverage is not out of proportion with the event being covered.
2. There is no suspect (at least publicly), so there can't be a trial.

There is certainly plenty wrong with how the media has handled it, but these things are not it.

Idiot.

"haha" you know I'm right about disguising and obviously a reason why anyone can still be a suspect. But as long as you can tell someone from a picture, they are completely cleared. Ok. You sure made a good point there.

I agreed it was interesting and that's the only reason I replied about SOMEONE ELSE'S picture pointing them out.

 

[7window]

feel bad for the suspects

you're absolutely right. here's some more suspects:

notice how they're all armed and intimidating looking? how about the "old man" clearly not running away from the blast?
