Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Note: Boston Bombing Suspect Allegedly Wrote Confession In Boat, CBS Reports

33. Have you seen the video?

I didn't. Presumably noone has seen it, besides of FBI and Boston police.

Let's assume for a moment that the video indeed shows - as you are surmising - that his bag exploded.

The video was taken from a camera across the street. Certainly the first thing investigators did was to check the footage of this camera at the moment of the blast +-5 minutes. I guess they looked at it on the very first day, April 15th.

Yet the FBI needed 3 full days - after some back and forth - to present the suspects, but not by showing the incriminating video with DT dropping his bag. You can hardly recognize DT's face on the pictures presented by the FBI.

I think this delay raises the legitimate question if the video in fact unambigously shows that DT was the perpetrator.

Either way: the video will certainly be discussed on the trial. Until then we should follow the guideline "innocent until proven guilty".
