People aren't always what they seem. A lot of people knew Ted Bundy as a charismatic law student and staff member of the Washington State Republican Party, but underneath that fake smile was a serial killer. He was the very definition of evil.
I would think the exception would be if there is probably cause to believe that he is part of a bigger group which could endanger public safety
1) I'm not sure what he could possibly have to tell that would have any bargaining value, unless there are more accomplices that the government can't identify on its own.
Yeah, he's not being held as an enemy combatant, as far as I've heard. People are conflating that with the Miranda rights delay, I think. I'm a proud board liberal, but questioning a person who could very well have knowledge of bombs before he can lawyer up seems like common sense to me. And I assume authorities will have to demonstrate the public safety imperative in court at some point.
Yeah, holding this guy as an enemy combatant would be idiotic. That's a separate issue from whether he gets a Miranda warning though.
I thought I heard that once "weapons of mass destruction" was labeled it became a federal crime? Fox news was saying that if it was a Federal Crime it was automatically a "death penalty" case. I dunno?
Agreed.
Already happened here in the ffa 5 minutes after they captured the animal
I think he'll crack under pressure as well, however, I think he won't get the death penalty if he spills the beans about who else may be involved (and it turns out to be true).
Obama tried his best to get them into the American justice system, but when the reality of the situation set in he balked.All those guys in Gitmo are free?
I hope they let a bird peck at his liver, and then the liver keeps growing back over and over again, and then he dies. But then they bring him back to life only to do it all over again, and then they shove bamboo into his eyes and pour lemon juice down them afterwards. And then they pull out his intestines and start strangling him with it and make his parents watch. :flexesinternetmuscles:
If Deval is for it I cant see Obama being against it
Pretty sure it's impossible for an American citizen to be held as an enemy combatant when the crime was committed on American soil.
He's not spilling the beans. Uncle Ruslan will never let that happen.
Interesting. Now that would be something since he is giving interviews to anyone with a camera right now. Hopefully the FBI will look into it and not necessarily believe what he is saying at face value.
I'm sure pops is being look
He kind of changed his tune afterwards. I give the father a pass on this as hes basically a world away in russia and im sure doesnt have all the details we had. Without those details its probably hard for any father to believe their children can be such monsters.
They lived with him in the dorm I believe, supposedly he slept there Wed night
An hour off for pee breaks?
Working in Watertown I can tell you he's a dime a dozen in this town
I wonder if his interview with the Russian authorities played a part into his adjustment
I would think even if he had all the details, the shock would still cause him to believe anything before thinking that his kids could do such a horrific thing for awhile. I'm sure I'd react the same way that no way, not my kid.
There's a legal question whether an American citizen captured on American soil can be declared an enemy combatant.
As far as the "my kids were framed" comment, I'm sure a lifetime of living in Russia has given him a healthy distrust of the police and government
So, what if he just doesn't answer and keeps his mouth shut? Is he eventually allowed an attorney?Insein, on 20 Apr 2013 - 09:27, said:
Thanks for that clarification.otello, on 20 Apr 2013 - 09:21, saider Huff Post:WASHINGTON -- A Justice Department official says the Boston Marathon bombing suspect will not be read his Miranda rights because the government is invoking a public safety exception.That official and a second person briefed on the investigation says 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will be questioned by a special interrogation team for high-value suspects. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to disclose the information publicly.The public safety exception permits law enforcement officials to engage in a limited and focused unwarned interrogation of a suspect and allows the government to introduce the statement as evidence in court. The public safety exception is triggered when police officers have an objectively reasonable need to protect the police or the public from immediate danger.
Yep. Unlikely, but if he doesn't say a word, after awhile, the government would be forced to provide him with his Miranda protections, including the right to a lawyer.So, what if he just doesn't answer and keeps his mouth shut?

This is true but now they are deciding if shutting down the whole city for the day for one dude was the best way to handle this. Seems Boston is out 300 mil for yesterday's shutdown. :dunno:
:eyeroll:Was wondering how long it would take for this angle to be trolled out there. Not the least bit surprised you're the one to bring it up. You're suggesting that the lives of the people in and around Boston are worth less than $300,000,000. To me they are worth much much much more than that. Who knows how many more he could have killed if they hadn't been sheltered in their homes. I'm fine with the financial cost of saving people's lives
