Investigators believe the bombs at the Boston Marathon were shrapnel-studded pressure cookers, hidden in backpacks and set off by timers, law enforcement officials told NBC News on Tuesday.

One of the three devices that was to be used in an attempted bomb attack in Times Square in 2010 was a pressure cooker. Earlier that year, terrorists used a pressure cooker bomb in an attack in Pakistan. And in 2006, more than 130 people were killed on the transit system of Mumbai, India, when pressure cookers loaded with explosives were placed on trains.

I just hope they catch these sonofabitches, whoever they may be.....and hang them from the nearest tree!
 
Agreed, but it won't happen. They'll have a trial in oh, about 10 years, and get time off for good behavior....

I have very little faith in our justice system, obviously. :-(

We have terrorists ranging from Islamic to "pro-life"....sitting in prison right now for decades or life.

Barb.. are you nuts? Wait, let me rephrase: what terrorists have we been unsuccessful in prosecuting, imprisoning, and in some cases.. putting to death?

I believe our record is around 95% of the clearly guilty ones.
 
Heard a FOXNews alert on the radio this morning that the bombs were in trash cans. Leads me to believe they were placed there Sunday night or in the wee hours Monday morning when there wouldn't be any witnesses.

Can you cite any example where someone who deliberately, and with malice aforethought, killed three people and injured over a hundred, in a terrorist attack, was eventually released for good behavior? Can you cite any crime of similar magnitude where the person didn't die in jail?
 
Ahem....

The Washington Post reports this morning that the Obama administration “has for several years been secretly releasing high-level detainees from a military prison in Afghanistan as part of negotiations with insurgent groups”—a program “U.S. officials acknowledge poses substantial risks.” The Post writes:


[T]he releases are an inherent gamble: The freed detainees are often notorious fighters who would not be released under the traditional legal system for military prisoners in Afghanistan. They must promise to give up violence — and U.S. officials warn them that if they are caught attacking American troops, they will be detained once again.

I’m sure that threat is quite a deterrent. The paper continues:


[O]fficials would not say whether those who have been released under the program have later returned to attack U.S. and Afghan forces once again.… Unlike at Guantanamo, releasing prisoners from the Parwan detention center, the only American military prison in Afghanistan, does not require congressional approval and can be done clandestinely…. U.S. officials would not say how many detainees have been released under the program, though they said such cases are relatively rare. The program has existed for several years, but officials would not confirm exactly when it was established.

This is unacceptable. The Obama administration owes the American people some answers. Specifically:

The Obama administration has been openly critical of the Bush administration for its “secret detention” of captured terrorists. Now it turns out the Obama administration been conducting the “secret release” of captured terrorists. How long has it kept the existence of this program secret from the American people, and what is the justification for this secrecy?

They still should have some surveillance video BD.. night vision technology (particularly on a well-lit street such as that one) is getting pretty slick.
 
Man...there HAS to be some footage of this going down.

There are just too many cameras in the street for there not to be.

Patience...it'll pop up.

And this ass-munch will hang.

Yep, they're probably in the process of reviewing THOUSANDS of hours of tape considering that in all likelihood there were likely 200-300 separate cameras in the vicinity of the two bombs.
 
Don't know what the temperature was like in Boston on Sunday night/Monday morning. I'm also guessing the perp(s) were wearing hoodies when they stashed the bombs. If the bombs were in trash cans,betcha they're checking sanitation worker records too.
 
Good point...

This could wind up being a tough case.

You know what gets me as well.. according to the FBI..there was NO chatter. They didn't have a CLUE this was about to go down.

That REEKS of well practiced professionalism or a VERY lone wolf.
