News reporting 2 explosions at Boston Marathon

[RIJIMMY]

I've read pages of material on these 2 guys today and not one mention of how they earned money? Apartment in Cambridge, Mercedes benz, boxing at gyms, going to UMass. How did they live without income?

Thats not important to the media. All thats important is trying to find someone who'll talk crap about them, and they must be pissed, because they can't seem to find a single one.

Why would they need someone to talk crap about them?

UMD is the cheapest school in the UMass system, and he apparently had a scholarship. Don't know whether he was living on-campus or commuting, but it is possible to get there by public transportation (Dattco bus from Boston to New Beige, SRTA bus to UMD). Most of the media is focusing on him right now, with the brother being dead. I don't know whether anyone is looking into an employment history right now, beyond the fact that the guy on the loose worked as a lifeguard at Harvard's aquatic center. I believe that both of them were living on the top floor of a 3 decker with another brother, their sister-in-law, and a baby. That was being reported this morning, at any rate, with news that the two other adults were "taken into custody". Haven't heard anything since.

No way they acted alone.
Either others still not caught/suspected
Someone was sending them $, either from inside or outside the country.

Not sure about that. They had no money. they robbed a 7-11 then let the carjacked victim go after using his ATM card to withdraw money.
Heard one news guy call them Extremists with a homegrown element, or something to that measure.

I still doubt they acted alone...
