Jahar Tsarnaev Goes to the Laundry

11

by Mary W Maxwell, LLB

I have revised my book “Marathon Bombing: Indicting the Players.” It is now called “The Soul of Boston and the Marathon Bombing.” It contains a chapter on the Brady rule regarding exculpatory evidence. That chapter required me to make a list – a laundry list – of exculpatory items for prisoner Dzhokhar (Jahar) Tsarnaev.

The US Supreme Court ruled in Brady v Maryland in 1963 that a government’s withholding of evidence was found to deprive the accused of his right to due process. Only a few of the exculpatory items in the laundry list below are about withholding by the government, i.e., the Prosecutor.

Most are about the Defense team’s withholding of crucial evidence. But then, the Public Defender is paid by the government, and in any case the effect was to deprive Jahar of due process.

His case is now in appeal at the First Circuit, Boston. (He was convicted of bombing the 2013 Marathon, killing an MIT cop named Sean Collier, and having a shootout with police). Hearings will begin no earlier than 2019, it appears.

If Jahar loses his appeal and goes to the US Supreme Court, his case could out-do Brady. The “Tsarnaev rule” could provide that any time the Public Defender’s gets all cozy with the Prosecutor, the public defender goes to jail.

(OK, I am being a bit imaginative there.)

The good news is that as the law now stands, each item below on its own should suffice to spring the boy from Colorado Supermax, never mind all twelve items combined.

I also think it should spring from jail any of his friends who were convicted of “hiding evidence,” “lying to the FBI,” and that sort of thing, as their arrests were done for malicious reasons.

Jahar’s Laundry List of Exculpatory Stuff

  1.  Defenders went to Russia to pressure parents to pressure Jahar.
  2.  FBI evidence in court is a black backpack; Jahar’s was whitish.
  3.  The Podstava video rules out a 12:35am Laurel St shoot-out, as Tamerlan was taken into custody naked, unwounded at 1:05am.
  4.  Matt Isgur’s compilation video has a telltale gap around 10.24pm (the moment Collier was killed) — and it is unimaginable that MIT does not own good quality surveillance.
  5.  The FBI refuses to say why it swarmed at MIT that afternoon.
  6.  Sean Collier’s cruiser was destroyed within 3 weeks for no reason. This is criminal concealment of evidence.
  7.  Judge O’Toole withheld from jury that Jahar pleaded not guilty.
  8.  Defender’s use of the ‘It’s him’ strategy was against the wishes of the accused.
  9.  Defender didn’t cross-examine Dun Meng or Nathan Harman, or challenge boat-wall “confession” written with a sharp pencil.
  10.  Friends who could help the accused were rounded up, put in solitary, and convicted of lying to FBI; some were deported.
  11.  Cabbie Matanov was chased around the highway by FBI; he had told of Tamerlan being bearded on Marathon night, contra the Boylston St photos of a clean-shaven Tamerlan.
  12.  The gun’s chain-of-custody is risible; Silva was trapped into a drug charge, then freed for giving witness against best friend Jahar.

— Mary W Maxwell is eagerly looking for a publisher for her new book, The Soul of Boston and the Marathon Bombing.

  5. Dee I just tried to post a simple comment but translated into Italian and Russian from google translate as well as the original English. It was filtered, all good, just saying.

  6. Dearest Mary: You always have a way to give us hope when our hope is down below. I would like to suggest to your readers to read the newest court document filed by the Appellate lawyers. Just google it at 1:13-cr-10200 GAO Document 1744. Now don’t make too much of it as we have no idea to what questions Jahar is responding. But there are beauties in there.

    All friends have been released from jail (the one serving their sentence for lying to the FBI). Dias might still be in an immigration jail awaiting to be deported. I have not read so far any article about his actual deportation.

    In the newest court document 1744 you will be amazed to find out that THERE IS ANOTHER BACKPACK COLOR in this case. Indeed there is a BROWN one that Jahar carried at the Boston Marathon, not a black one as alleged in the Indictment Bill, or alleged by the FBI/Government. Apparently he told the Guantanamo High Valued Interrogating Group that his backpack was BROWN. Nevertheless we have all seen government exhibit 22 where we clearly see Jahar carrying a whitish backpack. I suppose he was on good drugs when he wrote those notes!

    Now I would gladly fund a scientific research to find out if all Bostonian and perhaps all American are Daltonian. Someone needs to put a rest to the ever changing color of his backpack.

    The famous ‘fiberglass’ boat-wall note. If Jahar’s handwritten notes are genuine (Document 1744), we now have something to compare his handwriting to the boat note. However here is another issue that I am about to solve – the next time I am in a Canadian Tire Store or a Home Depot I will find a piece of fiberglass and I will try to write a secret message to the FBI on it with a sharp pencil. I am quite sure that the secret will remain a secret for ever. I read an article 5 years ago that stated that it is impossible to write on fiberglass with a pencil. I will inform you of the result.

    Now for the grand finale ‘The Gun’ that killed Officer Collier and used to fire at Watertown extraordinarily good police officers. You can take a bake and go vomit I totally understand. Well can you imagine Jahar completely disprove the wonderful work of our special friend Heather Frizzell (I am joking here Heather!) as Jahar told the interrogators that he and his brother Tamerlan found the gun in a car that was stationed in a scrap yard. Well at least if this is true it would surely explain why a 2-3-year old gun became so rusty.
