Female DNA Found on Bomb in Boston Attack By EVAN PEREZ And DEVLIN BARRETT

Investigators have found female DNA on at least one of the bombs used in the Boston Marathon attacks, though they haven't determined whose DNA it is or whether that means a woman helped the two suspects carry out the attacks, according to U.S. officials briefed on the probe.

The officials familiar with the case cautioned that there could be multiple explanations for why the DNA of someone other than the two bombing suspects—Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his younger brother, Dzhokhar—could have been found on remnants of the exploded devices. The genetic material could have come, for example, from a store clerk who handled materials used in the bombs or a stray hair that ended up in the bomb.

On Monday, Federal Bureau of Investigation agents were seen leaving the Rhode Island home of the parents of Katherine Russell, the widow of Tamerlan Tsarnaev. The elder brother died after a shootout with police four days after the April 15 bombings.

I would first suspect that wifey, instead of packing him a sandwich, helped him pack some explosives.

I've always suspected she is in on it.

Look at the videos, what do you have to loose?

STD,

IIRC That website you posted is not welcome here. Tinfoil hat stuff.

[mnehring]

1. The actor you posted a picture of looks nothing like the lady in the video. Completely different facial structure. Only the hair is similar.

2. Before it’s News. Seriously? That is a hoax site only one step away from The Onion and FNN.

[mnehring]

That isn’t even tinfoil hat, it is a known hoax site. It is made where anyone can go there and post whatever outrageous story they can make up and see who buys it. It isn’t as overt as The Onion, but its stories are just as real.

Yep. “Before It’s News” should be more aptly renamed “Before I Took My Daily Dose Of Thorzine (This Cr@p Made More Sense)”

[TigersEye]

LOL

[WildHighlander57]

My sanity :D

Beforeitsnews got the story right about Alhamdi (the captured Saudi who has since been deported) being Osama Bin Laden’s son Hamza.

I wondered who it was that put the story there though, because there are footnotes that don’t have any references, and no author claimed the article. I thought maybe the whistleblowers at the CIA put this info out there in order to let Napolitano know that the story was going to come out, but now I’m wondering if DHS put it out there in an unsourced beforeitsnews article in order to get people to blow it off as a nutjob conspiracy theory with no substantiation, and in that way to inoculate the public from ever taking it seriously.

But a Freeper who is qualified to determine an identity match based on facial recognition and other factors has said that Alhamdi is Bin Laden’s son Hamza, who has sworn to avenge his father’s death - and that the intel community would have known it was him.

Assuming they developed or at least tested a detonation device these materials would be hanging around the house for some time. In the way when the widow is changing huggies diapers.

We heard that the terrorists bought fireworks. Did they test a detonation device on fireworks for fear of being caught with or caught testing an actual bomb? Put the fireworks in the trunk and shove the detonator in a backpack in the back seat, with an I-pod and I-pod charger and a camera and assorted wires...if you get pulled over, no body gives the bag full of gadjets a second look. Cop takes your fireworks for his kids and your on your way.

STD?? Does that stand for “Sexually Transmitted Disease”?

Uh Oh you can't answer me, you have been zotted.

[Colorado Doug]

They also had some undetonated bombs. Those are probably the ones that they are pulling DNA from.

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

But arresting her for grand theft wouldn’t stick once Eric Holder got involved. We gotta be nice to Muzzies, remember?

[GeronL]

could be a victim?

[Star Traveler]

SO ... you think that Holder is going to do the same thing to Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, too? ... LOL ...

You gotta get out of that head of yours once in a while and into the ‘real world’ ... :-)

[bgill]

the idiots running this investigation shouldn’t be leaking the evidence

It could be nothing more than turning on the light and watching the roaches run. Look what happened when they televised the suspects pictures. They grabbed their extra bombs and tried to scurry away. Sadly, that cost one cop's life. This could be to see which females start getting nervous.

[Sacajaweau]

If that’s the case, then multiple possibilities abound.

[cynwoody]

The cops sat there and saw this older sweaty Austrian gal then pick up a whole bunch of the swabs with her barehands. Then they realized who the Phantom Killer was, or how corrupted the whole DNA process had become. They basically threw out their entire database on the Phantom Killer over night.

Dummköpfe!

Female DNA Found on Bomb in Boston Attack

Did it get there before or after it exploded?

Thanks for posting! I am loathe to understand why people who absolutely despise this Administration,suddenly believe everything they’ve been told about this event by same Administration. Only reason I can figure is that they have such deep-seated fear of anything that falls outside of their normalcy bias and so refuse to look at the possibility, even if it is Obama. They’ll ‘take on’ with great vitriol the government shut down of the city and door to door searches, but can allow themselves to even consider the government is entirely responsible.
