He was an all-star wrestler and a member of the class of 2011 at Cambridge Rindge & Latin School; he won a Cambridge City Scholarship that year. Tsarnaev’s elder brother and ­alleged accom­plice — 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the second suspect in Monday’s Boston Marathon attack — was pronounced dead early Friday morning at Beth Israel ­Deaconess Medical Center, ­after suffering shrapnel and bullet wounds in a gunfight with police. "There are still many unanswered questions," Obama said Friday night. The world watched live on television Friday night as police laid siege to Watertown, Massachusetts, and finally captured Dzhokar. What unfolded was a story typical of the American immigrant narrative: A family originally from the Russian republic of Chechnya fled the brutal wars in their homeland in the 1990s. First, there were photographs, then names attached to the images. The U.S. official said he came four years later on September 6, 2006, and held a permanent resident visa. A spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin said Saturday that Russia wants to get official information from the United States about the bombing suspects, and he wants there to be contact between investigators in both countries. "You would have to know the internals of what they have before you can assess whether there is a sensible invocation or not," Giuliani said. FBI agents interviewed bombing suspect in 2011 
 
 Photographer Johannes Hirn shot images of Tamerlan at the Wai Kru Mixed Martial Arts Center on Brighton Street in Cambridge. That's where he trained before the Golden Gloves. It won’t be the same.” 
 
 Tsarnaev was wounded and taken to a hospital. His aunt said he had become more devout a few years ago and started praying five times a day. "They will set a preliminary hearing that could happen in the next 30 days. There's another big question: The National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 requires temporary military custody of certain terrorist suspects, but Dzhokar Tsarnaev is a U.S. citizen, and the act doesn't apply to Americans. It did say that Tamerlan Tsarnaev had been on the FBI's radar in the past 
 
 FBI agents interviewed Tamerlan two years ago and also looked at his travel history, checked databases for derogatory information and searched for Web postings. Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was not a U.S. citizen, traveled to Sheremetyevo, Russia, in January 2012, according to travel records provided by a U.S. official. He returned six months later, those documents show. "Why did these young men who grew up and studied here as part of our communities and our country resort to such violence? He was not a nice man.” 
 
 In a photo essay about boxing, Tamerlan said: “I don’t have a single American friend. "He was compassionate, he was caring, he was jovial."  Story highlights NEW : Federal Public Defender Office in Boston to represent Dzhokar Tsarnaev after charges are filed

 Federal terrorism charges against Boston Marathon bombings suspect Dzhokar Tsarnaev could be filed soon, even as he remains hospitalized, a Justice Department official told CNN on Saturday. It may be hard for a prosecutor to prove which crimes were committed by Tsarnaev or his older brother, Dershowitz said. Asked what might have motivated the people who did the attack, he said: "Being losers; hatred to those who were able to settle themselves. Dershowitz also said statements made by police in Boston seems to contradict the government's reasons for invoking the public safety exception. “None of this will bring our beloved Martin back, or reverse the injuries these men inflicted on our family and nearly two hundred others,” the Dorchester family said in a statement.
– As the speculation continues into what turned the Tsarnaev brothers into alleged terrorists, a common theme is emerging in stories about Tamerlan, 26, and Dzhokhar, 19. As the Boston Globe puts it: A "picture began to emerge Friday of Tamerlan Tsarnaev as an aggres­sive, possibly radicalized immigrant who may have ­ensnared his younger brother—described almost universally as smart and sweet — into an act of terror. The New York Times has a story with a similar tack, headlined "Boy at Home in U.S., Swayed by One Who Wasn't," that plays off this paragraph: "The older one, who friends and family members said exerted a strong influence on his younger sibling—'He could manipulate him,' an uncle said—once told a photographer, 'I don’t have a single American friend. I don’t understand them.'" In its profile of the brothers, CNN writes that Dzhokhar started going to the gym at age 10 to be with his boxer brother: "Dzhokar followed Tamerlan around like a puppy. He'd be just behind him, doing calisthenics." One reason why all this might matter: If Dzhokhar's defense team makes the case that it was Tamerlan who was the driving force behind the plot, it could mean the difference between life and death for him. "If he says my intent was to please my brother, they could raise the question of federal jurisdiction," says attorney Alan Dershowitz in a separate CNN story. If the case remains under state jurisdiction as a result, Dzhokhar would escape the death penalty, which isn't in place in Massachusetts.
