Boston: 'Wife Heard Husband Was Suspect On TV'

Written By Unknown on Senin, 22 April 2013 | 20.18

The wife of one of the alleged Boston Marathon bombers apparently found out he was a suspect on television.

US investigators have asked to speak to Muslim convert Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, according to her lawyer Amato DeLuca, as they try to establish a motive for the attacks.

She did not suspect her husband Tamerlan Tsarnaev of anything, and nothing seemed amiss after the bombings, he added.

Mr DeLuca said she had been working 70 to 80 hours a week as a home health care aide while her husband looked after their toddler daughter.

The lawyer said on the last day his client saw her husband alive, Tamerlan, 26, was home when she left for work.

She was at university in Boston when friends introduced her to her future husband at a nightclub and they dated on and off, before marrying in 2009 or 2010, Mr DeLuca said.

Mrs Russell Tsarnaev, reportedly aged 24, was raised as a Christian, but at some point after meeting Tamerlan Tsarnaev she converted to Islam, he said.

When asked why she converted, he said: "She believes in the tenets of Islam and of the Koran. She believes in God."

The suspected bomber was killed after a shootout with police early on Friday.

His brother Dzhokhar, 19, escaped, triggering an hours-long manhunt that shut down Boston before he was caught.

The siblings are accused of planting two bombs near the marathon finish line last Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 180.

Mrs Russell Tsarnaev did not speak to federal officials who on Sunday evening came to her parents' home, where she has been staying since her husband died.

Mr DeLuca said he spoke to officials but he would not offer further details.

"We're deciding what we want to do and how we want to approach this," he said.

When asked whether anything seemed amiss to the wife following the bombings, DeLuca said, "Not as far as I know."

"When this allegedly was going on, she was working, and had been working all week to support her family," he said.

He said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was at college and she did not see him "at all" at the apartment they shared with her mother-in-law.
