RockRaines Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 17, 2013 -> 10:22 AM) I'd really like to know what the probable cause was in the petition for the search warrant. There had to have been something he did or said that made investigators think he was a "person of interest" for nearly 24 hours. Something a Judge had to sign off on. They said his statements were weird like "I thought there was going to be another explosion" that was probably enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many store security cameras in that area not to get the guy on tape at some point. Plus, if he used a credit card to buy any of the stuff in the bombs, that will make it easier.

Balta1701 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 CNN is running with this now: Investigators believe they have identified a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings, a source who has been briefed on the investigation told CNN's John King exclusively. The breakthrough came from analysis of video from a department store near the site of the second explosion. Video from a Boston television station also contributed to the progress, said the source, who declined to be more specific but called it a significant development. We'll see if they have turned themselves into the NYPost or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Let's just hope we are correct and not jump to conclusions. Let's remember 96 olympic bombings and 00 anthrax cases where wrong people were arrested initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a very fast turnaround between the event happening an apparently an arrest. One would think that if the police are moving like that, they have something fairly solid. I can't imagine that detailed forensics, like pulling data off of fractured chips of circuit boards and tracking them around the country, or analyzing the detailed composition of the bombs and backtracking to the seller of the components, could have happened yet.

Jenksismyhero Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I wondered about this. How on earth did this guy think he was going to get away with it at the finish line? He had to know there would be a TON of video cameras rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the guy wasn't very good at covering his tracks, it's very believable that the Feds have it figured out already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Interesting stuff in the pics, but hard to conclude anything. Pretty easy to make someone with a black backpack with silver straps look suspicious with just a few pictures -- why is he looking this direction? Why did he stand here for so long? etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
