But the other point is, they don't need whatever he says during this "public safety special exception" interrogation time, to prove him guilty in a court. They already have such overwhelming evidence against him.
Thank you! That is exactly correct! Let's be clear, I am all for Miranda and certainly do understand Miranda and the case law surrounding it's use. I happen to be extremely well versed in case law in reference to custodial interrogations, 4th Ammendment Issues and non custodial interviews. If someone wanted to have an intelligent fact based discussion on when Miranda applies that would be worthwhile. I would think the overwhelming amount of evidence against him will certainly be enough to gain a conviction in this case. His statements are not necessary for trial, it would be nice to interview him and see what other plans he had, who else may have been involved and where they learned to make the IED's? It is the information that comes from interviews with suspects of this nature that build profiles, identify security weaknesses and threats as well as co conspirators.
Don't get hung up on Miranda and whether or not it was read to him before questioning. The FBI is very skilled and will proceed with the utmost care in questioning this individual, one because they want certain questions answered, two because this is a very serious, high profile case dealing with National Security, Homeland Defense and Terrorism. Again, even if Miranda wasn't't read it would just make his statements inadmissible. I really don't think they need his statements for a conviction as Bee so correctly pointed out. I would bet my paycheck that the US Atty assigned to this case will be overseeing the interview every step of the way. If you have ever taken a case to Federal Court, and I have had a few investigations go Federal, it is a night and day difference from State Prosecutions.

this one kinda has a familiar odor to it, not quite like the last one but similar.
They now know they can lock down a major city.
I had some doubts when I saw the white smoke, and the limited blast area.

Yes, what next? This is the really chilling part to read, I think... hard to believe what callousness it takes to do this:
After the first blast, a block away from Dzhokhar, "virtually every head turns to the east ... and stares in that direction in apparent bewilderment and alarm," the complaint says. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, "virtually alone of the individuals in front of the restaurant, appears calm."
He then quickly walked away, leaving a knapsack on the ground; about 10 seconds later, a bomb blew up at the spot where he had been standing, the FBI said.

I found this woman's story very interesting, too, the mother gave her facials!

Yes, lets talk facts, an intelligent fact based conversation. Is that like busting into someone's house over ornamentals and not being able to tell the difference between marijuana and ornamentals? Causing an officer to be shot and NO drug charges to ever be filed in the case? Yes, intelligence.
So, please take your condescending fact based intelligence and stick it where the sun doesn't shine, officer.
