Boston jihad murderer’s widow under investigation, could face charges

Mar 4, 2015 8:29 am By Robert Spencer

katherine_russell_tsarnaevThis is long overdue. The Tsarnaevs lived in a small apartment. How could she have not known what was going on? There is a great deal more that is likely to come out about her involvement. “Boston Bombing Suspect’s Widow Under Investigation, Could Face Charges,” by Brian Ross and Michele McPhee, ABC, March 4, 2015:

The widow of one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects is under active investigation and could face potential criminal charges related to the deadly blast, law enforcement officials told ABC News.

A spokesperson for the U.S. attorney’s office and the FBI declined to comment and authorities said no decision has been made on whether to eventually bring charges while prosecutors concentrate on the trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, Russell’s brother-in-law.

Russell, who was married to Tamerlan Tsarnaev, is suspected of being the woman who accompanied Tsarnaev to a Macy’s in Boston two months before the April 2013 attack where the couple bought five pressure cookers – two of which were allegedly used to make the bombs placed at the marathon finish line. In an affidavit to search the Tsarnaev’s home, FBI agents said they were looking for clothing consistent with those seen on a security video at Macy’s.

A few weeks earlier Tamerlan Tsarnaev had gone to a fireworks store in New Hampshire and bought 48 mortar shells, also used in the bombs. At the fireworks store, Tamerlan had asked for the “biggest and loudest” fireworks available and spent roughly $200, according to court documents.

“To live in a small apartment and buy five pressure cookers and have all those explosives obviously just does not make sense – something other than cooking was going on,” said former FBI special agent and ABC News consultant Brad Garrett….

    It’s about time.

    I said at the time this skank should be thoroughly investigated. As Robert says, how, in a tiny flat, could she *not* have known what was going on.

    And she goes with hubby to buy *5* pressure cookers ?

    Another Samantha Lewthwaite, I think. **Evil** bitch.

      Obvious, isn’t it. A conspiracy. She should be charged as a co-conspirator and locked up for years. People died because of her.

    • M S case says

      What could or would she do….If she had turned him in… She probably would have been killed by him, if he had the chance,( she was married to a muslim. What rights do women have in islam) or she would have been killed by other jihadist. I hope she is tried and found guilty but CAIR will come to her rescue with all it’s minions.

    Charge her with treason.

    Clearly it is islamiphobia looking to destroy the religion of truth.

    Indeed.

    Dead in the eyes, dead in the soul. The whited sepulcher embodied. She made war against the American people, let her never forget it.

      Yeap, excellent point about her eyes. Very scary that an american girl can turn like that.

    It is almost impossible to think that a person is too stupid to realize whats going on. She should be tried for treason

    Just another perfect example of what the religion of peace & tolerance could do to an otherwise normal human being.
    Now, normal could be a bit questionable in her case; as one could argue how a normal person could ever thinking of going out with a mohammedan & converting to islam.

    No investigation of his friends at the mosque where “moderate Muslims” worship Allah?

    Also we can keep quit about Boston Marathon masacre for a while and all is forgotten any how so no more Jihad problems. What do you think?

    What a dreadful expression on that woman’s face! Cold. Hard. Loveless. Joyless. A dead soul. A living soul would project warmth. With a smile she could be pretty. She is not naturally ugly which makes her face all the more horrifying. Islam turns people into zombies. How horrible!

    CBS said that the former Mrs. Speedbump is now remarried with a new baby. Anyone else hear this? What a fast moving slave of allah.

    • Sam Hawkins says

      Mar 4, 2015 at 5:40 pm

      “former Ms Speedbump”

      Ha, ha. Yes, the older Tsarnaiev died from being run over by their stolen car, with his brother at the wheel, during their attempted break-out.

      I have always considered this a cosmic irony.

      Hope Ms. Speeddumb gets tried, convicted, and locked up for 20+ years.

      • Darren says

        Mar 4, 2015 at 11:19 pm

        She should be executed!

    Every muslim on the plant should ask for forgiveness to everybody for having a religion that hates everybody.

    A SNL skit about how most every American housewife buys 5 or so pressure cookers could be a corker. I write this because, as I have stated several times here at JW, mockery of evil is the next best thing to crushing it. Hopefully, this fool who is highly likely to be a malicious fool will end up being both mocked and crushed.

    God, what an idiot this woman is. She was born in a land where all kinds of rights and opportunities existed that have NEVER existed in any Islamic lands and yet she chose to convert to the worst religion of all time. Any American who does this insults America. No exceptions. Not one.

    • Sam says

      Mar 4, 2015 at 6:59 pm

      Agreed. Also no more excuses for these ignorant liberal enablers of evil, I mean Islam,

    • Elise says

      Mar 5, 2015 at 12:03 am

      She’s a moron with no critical thinking skills and no life skills thanks to her lazy dysfunctional parents who probably gave her everything she wanted. Where is the NOW? Whatever happened to the concept of becoming an independent intelligent women that I became during my college days in the mid to late 1970’s? As a married woman with 2 college age children, I made sure that our children understood the importance of life skills and critical thinking skills to make their way to independence in America. This woman is lost and she should pay for her stupid allegiance to Allah and her husband.

    “To live in a small apartment and buy five pressure cookers and have all those explosives obviously just does not make sense – something other than cooking was going on,”

    Obviously a chilli cook off party; they’d need five pressure cookers for:

    Meat
    Vegetarian
    Non-halal
    Gluten free
    Extra spicy.

    The fireworks were needed for when the winner received the award for the best chilli, they were to be fired out of the window as the apartment has no back yard. The black flag of jihad which was hanging over the fireplace was actually a tablecloth and the explosive bomb belt hidden behind the immersion heater in the back bedroom was actually part of tamerlan’s “intense ab workout” routine; which he had been planning to market and make money on to support homeless people in downtown Boston.

    That ends the case for the defence m’lud.

    Hell awaits her with pustule ridden arms.

  15. Lia Wissing says

    And if she’s found guilty? The USA continues to provide her with housing, food & everything else she needs.

    The dead eyed look is the result of becoming a slave of allah.

    She should be charged with treason. She looks scaringly evil

    Unless they found powder burns or have damning admissions, this is not even probable cause.

    Meanwhile, Barry Sotero appoints a Muslim Brotherhood as administrator for the counterterrorism division and we’re all down wid dat.

    She needs to go to jail too.

    Most Muslim women suffer from severe Stockholm syndrom, especially if they were seduced by a Muslim, as this foolish young American women was in Boston. She clearly is a co-conspirator and thus must be made an example of what happend to jihadist womanfalk to do not speak up.

    The mosque in which the terrorists were members need to be sued for HATE speech agaisnt humanity (as writteen in Koran, Hadith and Sira) , whihc had resuted in Boston marathon murders. There are many members of ths synagogue who are also involved with ISIS. SUE their pants off and shut them down, together with 80% of American mosques whilch teach hatred of America. Our tolerance and Freist amandment does not protect their HATE speech against humanity.

    How many more homegrown jihadists before we drop the “self-radicalization” hogwash and address #Islamism preached in US?nypost.com/2014/09/07/jih…

    It is Islam ITSELF which is promoted by the memorization of Koran and Hadith in the mosques of USA, Eruope and Australia that ‘”inspires” jihad against the Western civilization. Everybody should read Koran and Hadith (www.cspipublishing.com/pdfs/ATwohourKOran.pdf) to understand why 95% of all terrorist acts are commited by the Muslims, often growing in the West, like those ISIS beheaders.

    I agree, we should all read the Koran And Hadith as well as the history behind when and who wrote them. These two books are the pure essence and instruction books of everything that is held sacred by all democracies and civilized cultures that have evolved over thousands of years. It is absolutely incomprehensible how we have regressed in the civilized world to a point that anyone supports the position of these two books. WE HAVE BEEN WARNED BY MANY WHO HAVE STUDIED THIS PHENOMENA AND UNDERSTAND ITS RAMIFICATIONS BUT NORTH AMERICA & EUROPE JUST DOSEN’T GET IT. Let no one complain that they were not informed or did not understand. Ignorance is not an excuse, They just failed to listen. ( HEARING IS NOT LISTENING )

    This evil scumbag should be tried for treason. I blame her parents as well. They should have done a better job bringing up their daughter.
