All well and good to forgive and pray for his soul, but in no way should anything about him be mitigated, let alone excused. I don't know if this picture has been posted here, but I have it saved to my hard drive, just in case down the road, I start to feel some twinge of sympathy. I may ask God to save his soul, but I'll also ask God to let justice prevail, and for him to feel the full weight of human justice.

Judging before facts are in. Interesting.

It looks Ivory Pure that they are responsible for this act. The surviving brother will be tried and the government will make its case.

Should the 0.66% chance play out this might get revisited but so far this looks pretty damning.

What would YOU suggest?

I suggest people be happy this is finally over and wait to see what the full story is.

I don't know about you, but since the older brother is dead and the younger one is in custody we should be more concerned with the dead and injured at this point. They need more attention than the kid does.

Interesting for the faithful to pass judgement so readily.

I am not going to dignify this personal barb with a response. I'm faithful enough to understand my human failings. Everyone has them. You can make fun of my beliefs all you want. I won't respond in kind.

This isn't a faith issue. This is a matter of law. The law will be processed and initial evidence in the court of public opinion does not look good for the last kid remaining. If some miraculous information comes out and proved it is the Easter Bunny, then pink fur will get locked up. But it isn't looking that way.

There is more evidence in the public against this kid than what was out a few days ago when you were calling out the Philly kid.

Using Ted "logic" perhaps we should keep the older brother in our T&P's also.He must be a victim of circumstance also.

I guess they just happen to have been there with those same backpacks? They just happen to have made the call the exact time they detonated? They just happened to have the same type of bombs on them during the first fire fight? They just happened to have all those arms and amo? Only an idiot would question whether they did it.

the facts are in...they did it. There will be no defense offered that they didn't do it. That would be stupid. All the defense will offer is reasons why he should not be held responsible for what he did.
