They saw the pictures on AOL this morning? Is it 1997?

I was hoping the interview would end with him saying, "Baba booey baba booey Howard Stern's penis!"

Again it's the brothers commiting the crimes.

Obviously, the dad and uncle think a tad differently...

"If they killed him, then all hell would break loose."

"If they kill my second child, I will know that it is an inside job, a hit job. The police are to blame," the father told ABC News. "Someone, some organization is out to get them."

He's a dad. What do you expect him to say? They're his kids. He still wants to think the best of him and wants someone to blame. While he's obviously delusional, this is a man who has basically lost his children.

He has apparently told the BBC he thinks they were framed by the Secret Service.

That interview of the uncle has the potential to be legendary.

Pretty interesting about the guy who lost both legs helping ID the bomber.

A 27-year-old man whose legs were blown off by the Boston bombings reportedly helped FBI agents identify one of the suspects, saying the man looked him in the eye as he placed a bag filled with explosives at his feet.

Jeff Bauman was waiting for his girlfriend to cross the finish line just before 3 p.m. Monday when a man wearing a cap, sunglasses and a black jacket dropped a bag at Bauman's feet, his brother, Chris Bauman, told Bloomberg News.

Two and a half minutes later, the bag exploded, shredding Bauman's legs. A photo of his bloodied body being rushed by wheelchair from the scene has become an iconic image of the terrorist attack.

"He woke up under so much drugs, asked for a paper and pen and wrote, 'bag, saw the guy, looked right at me,'" Chris Bauman told Bloomberg News.

Bauman's description to investigators at his bedside reportedly helped them zero in on suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was killed early Friday in a shootout with police.

Bauman was rushed to Boston Medical Center, where both his legs were amputated from the knee down. His family learned of his fate only after seeing the grisly image of their son in news reports.

One volunteer, dubbed the the "Cowboy Hat Hero," is being credited with helping to save Bauman's life. The man, identified as Carlos Arredondo, used some pieces of cloth to tie tourniquets around Bauman's mangled legs before getting him onto a wheelchair.

Arredondo's son, Alex, died in Iraq in 2004. He was reportedly at the marathon to support "Tough Ruckers" – a group that runs in full military gear to honor fallen comrades.

If some dude put a big bag in front of me then walked away, not sure I would stick around for two and a half minutes. But I wasn't in that guy's situation so I can't really say what I would do.

I had hope that they had him pinned down someplace, but the gov. and mayor's press conference made it sound like he's in the wind.

I think that's a N.Y. Post story. So, no, it's almost certainly not true.
