Man with ties to Boston bombing suspect admits role in 2011 murders; shot during FBI questioning
NBC News ^ | 5/22/13 | Richard Esposito, Pete Williams and Matthew DeLuca

Posted on 05/22/2013 2:31:54 PM PDT by jimbo123

Dead Boston bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev and another man — who was killed by the FBI on Wednesday — murdered three people in Massachusetts after a drug deal went wrong in 2011, law enforcement sources tell NBC News.

Sources say that what began as a drug ripoff ended in a triple homicide when Tsarnaev and friend Ibragim Todashev realized their victims would later be able to identify them.

Todashev was killed by a federal agent while giving a statement on his role on Wednesday in Orlando, Fla.

The man who was shot, Todashev, 27, allegedly attacked an agent with a knife while confessing to the 3-year-old slayings. He was not suspected of having played any role in the bombing that killed three people and injured scores more in April, but he did confess to being involved in a brutal Boston-area slaying two years ago, investigators said.

His statement took a long time...he was confronted in his apartment in the early morning according to the article, and was signing a statement at night when he went berserk. And his friend who ratted him out, was asked to leave. There are questions here, but I’m not crying in my beer about one less muzzie terrorist wannabe.

I understand; but doesn't that strike you as particularly STUPID of the authorities?

I'm just agog.

Dear livius,

You recite what is publicly revealed.

I don't think anyone with a brain thinks there isn't more to it.

True. Did you see the schnozzola on that mug shot photo?

Yes because you always allow people to have knives while questioning them. What a great espionage movie all of this crap would make.

Your suspicion won’t happen, that’s a fact. This terrorist will never be set free.

Yes because you always allow people to have knives while they are signing a confession admitting to a triple murder.

When I saw that headline this morning about the jihadi being shot, my first thought was a movie title:

The Man Who Knew Too Much.

We know that all three victims in those 2011 murders in Waltham, MA, were Jewish. "Drug deal gone bad" may have been a cover-up for the real motive: anti-Semitic hate that consumes radical Islam.

Marijuana may have been scattered over the premises by the perps after the murder to fool investigators as to motive.

“It’s not clear who shot Todashev, officials say, because — while he was being questioned by an FBI agent — officers from the Massachusetts state police and the Orlando police department were also present in the house where the interrogation was going on.”

“He was cooperative at first, they say, but later that night, he attacked the agent with a knife, who shot and killed him.”

That makes perfect sense. He attacked and FBI agent with a knife in the presence of at least two other armed LEO’s, and it’s not clear who shot him because of the presence of at least three LEO’s but it was the FBI agent he attacked who shot him.

So who gave the order for the federal agents to take Todashev out before he told the whole story?

Also, it happened on 9/11/2011.

Sounds very suspicious.

I'm not saying there's not a plausible explanation, but the details are very bizarre.

In any case, the Federal Bureau of Incompetence has proven itself completely unable to handle these type of terrorism investigations, as Peter Lance has pointed out.

As I asked on an earlier thread, Where was Jack Ruby when they needed him?
