edjr 5,717 Posted April 22, 2015 http://cdn.barstoolsports.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Screen-Shot-2015-04-22-at-1.38.29-PM.png?868f38 A never-before-seen picture of Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was shown in court today - and it's an image that just might get him killed. Earlier this month, the 21-year-old was found guilty on all charges related to the April 15, 2013 attacks at the Boston Marathon finish line, and Tuesday marked the beginning of the penalty phase of the trial. Over the next several weeks, jurors will hear more evidence and testimonies as they decide whether to sentence Tsarnaev to life in prison or the death penalty. Prosecutors gunning to send Tsarnaev to the execution table punctuated their emotionally-charged opening statements this morning by releasing a new picture of Tsarnaev, taken three months after his arrest. In the picture, Tsaranev wears an orange jumpsuit and puts on a cocky image, offensively flipping off a video camera and puckering his lips in his cell on the day of his arraignment. It's an image Tsarnaev's defense attorneys will now have a hard time countering, as they attempt to portray him as a secondary member in the attack they say was mostly orchestrated by older brother Tamerlan. In an unexpected move, Tsarnaev's defense attorneys announced today that they would not be giving their opening statements until next week. She started by showing pictures of the three victims killed by the Tsarnaev bombs and the police officer they shot dead while on the run. Assistant U.S. attorney Nadine Pellegrini gave the opening statements for the prosecution Tuesday morning in Pellegrini described Tsarnaev's murder of Krystle Campbell, Lu Lingzi, Martin Richard and Sean Collier as 'unbearable, indescribable, inexcusable and senseless.' 'These victims had time to feel pain, to be frightened, but no time to say goodbye. That is the very essence of terror,' Pellegrini said During opening statements, Tsarnaev stared straight ahead, refusing to look at Pellegrini. After speaking about the four victims, Pellegrini unveiled a picture of Tsarnaev standing at the finish line behind a row of smiling spectators - many of them young children. On the ground next to him sits the backpack with one of the two pressure-cooker bombs used in the attack. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3048235/Penalty-phase-Boston-Marathon-bombing-trial-set-begin.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vikings4ever 496 Posted April 22, 2015 I respect the viewpoint of people who oppose the death penalty because of the risk of executing innocent people. But cases like this, where things have gone past "beyond a reasonable doubt" to "beyond a doubt", try him, convict him, take him out back and shoot him.

A little too quick ands painless for my liking. It should definitely involve a pressure cooker. And tiny little screws flying at him. Legs should be blown off before he dies.

Legs should be blown off before he dies. Maybe you could actually, you know, be realistic (for once) and keep the hyperbole to a minimum? He is going to be kept in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day, no one will ever get near him. Unless a guard does what they did for Dahmer and leaves the door unlocked. Christopher J. Scaver ain't walking through that door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,430 Posted April 22, 2015 He'll probably get the death penalty. To sit on a jury in a death penalty case you have to say that there are some circumstances where you would apply the death penalty. If you're completely opposed under any circumstances then you can't be on the jury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToadSprocket 12 Posted April 22, 2015 My thoughts: WHAT IF ? What if death is the ultimate ultimate. THE GREATEST place to be EVER ! Okay, we don't know. So we're making the worst people ever go somewhere we DON'T KNOW what it is. I'm kinda for him to hang out in the prison and think about his dead brother and how he died. Let him sit through a few anniversary tributes to the dead and injured. Let him get older and duller and realize his schtick was WRONG. Let him pay a penalty that we know is a penalty.

The flipping off of the camera goes against the defense's claim that he was just going along with his brother, who was the ringleader. Defense is trying to paint Tsarneav as some innocent kid just going along with his brother. The flipping off of the camera shows that he is a defiant scofflaw who has every bit the hate in his heart as his brother did. Very damaging photo for the defense.

Thornton Melon 549 Posted April 22, 2015 I don’t see him getting the death penalty here. There’s no way you’ll get 12 random people from liberal Massachusetts to all agree someone deserves death; I don’t care what they put on their juror questionnaire forms. It has to be 12-0 for death, or else it’s life. I predict 9-3 for death. Personally, I vacillated between the death penalty and life in prison for this guy. Yeah, 23 hours a day in solitary sounds worse than being put to sleep with a needle. But how long do you think he’ll really be spending 23 hours a day isolated? Not the rest of his life, I’m sure. There are lawsuits now claiming 23 hours in solitary for the mentally handicapped is cruel and unusual punishment. In keeping with the continued pussification of our great society, it’s only a matter of time before that gets extended to “normal” psychopaths like this guy. So we have no idea what his prison life will be like 10, 15, 20 years from now. Hell, we may be paying for his “gender re-assignment” surgery in the not too distant future. Just kill him now.

I'm kinda surprised the jury was allowed to see a picture of him flipping the bird. Has nothing to do with the crime he's charged with.?. Either do character witnesses, but they sometimes allow them. I think the middle finger picture is a very important piece of evidence. You're trying to determine a guy's role in the crime. What his mindset is. If he seems remorseful. That one picture answer3d a lot of questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
