'Never in his life': Father of Tsarnaev's friend questions FBI slaying of son

7. Yeah, those two officials are the same AP source officials--and they weren't in the room.

They were "briefed on the investigation" but we don't know by whom. And there's no way to determine if this is a formal briefing or if it's a "briefing" that is third or fourth hand.

This is like a game of telephone whispers. Perhaps these "sources" have been warned that someone planted a bogus detail with them to try and out them for blabbing to the press as "talkers out of turn."

A lot of people were in that condo, apparently, and any of them could have talked to someone who talked to someone:

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.

I believe they round up the guns after a shooting and determine what weapon(s) fired the fatal shot(s). They may be unwilling to state decisively until that step is finished.

Then we've got these guys who are talking to the press--but are they also talking off the record?

A spokesperson for the Middlesex County District Attorney’s office, which is investigating the three deaths, said that the office does not discuss ongoing investigations. Relatives for the three men did not immediately return requests for comment.
Officials say FBI agents were questioning Todashev on Tuesday. He was cooperative at first, they say, but later that night, he attacked the agent with a knife. Officials say Todashev became violent as he was about to sign a written statement based on his confession.

And here's another talker who may have gone OTR:

A spokesman for the Orlando Police Department referred all questions regarding the shooting to the FBI.

And here's one more:

An FBI incident review team was dispatched from Washington, D.C., and was expected to arrive in Orlando within 24 hours, FBI Special Agent Dave Couvertier said on Wednesday morning.

Lots of sources--and some not even in the same state.
