00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:18,770
[Filipov]
To really understand what happened,
3
00:00:19,729 --> 00:00:20,646
we have to go back.
4
00:00:20,646 --> 00:00:22,440
[tape rewinding]
5
00:00:38,623 --> 00:00:42,794
[Filipov] In 1944, Soviet dictator
Joseph Stalin decided
6
00:00:42,794 --> 00:00:46,130
that the entire Chechen nation
was helping Nazi Germany.
7
00:00:46,881 --> 00:00:49,175
As a result of this,
they were put in cattle cars
8
00:00:49,175 --> 00:00:52,136
and sent to this remote region
in Central Asia.
9
00:00:53,638 --> 00:00:58,351
It was a mass exile of an entire people.
Half of them died on the way.
10
00:00:59,894 --> 00:01:01,104
Those who survived
11
00:01:01,104 --> 00:01:05,316
included Tamerlan and Dzhokhar's
grandfather, Zaindy Tsarnaev.
12
00:01:06,609 --> 00:01:11,072
To get by and to provide for his family,
Zaindy would scavenge around
13
00:01:11,072 --> 00:01:14,450
through this scrapyard
for parts that he could resell.
14
00:01:15,743 --> 00:01:19,247
One day, he put his stuff in the car
unaware that one of the things
15
00:01:19,247 --> 00:01:24,377
that he'd scavenged was a live munition
that detonated and killed him instantly.
16
00:01:26,629 --> 00:01:30,758
His son Anzor meets this woman
named Zubeidat, and they get married.
17
00:01:30,758 --> 00:01:32,760
- They have four kids.
- [camera clicking]
18
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,139
The oldest is Tamerlan.
The youngest is Dzhokhar.
19
00:01:37,140 --> 00:01:39,267
They were able to get refugee status
20
00:01:39,267 --> 00:01:41,936
and go to the United States,
the Boston area.
21
00:01:41,936 --> 00:01:43,813
He was seeking the American dream.
22
00:01:43,813 --> 00:01:44,897
[camera clicks]
23
00:01:46,065 --> 00:01:47,275
And then they get here...

[camera clicks]
25
00:01:48,943 --> 00:01:51,988
...and this dream, it wasn't real.
26
00:01:52,488 --> 00:01:55,992
And things just don't go
according to plan.
27
00:01:56,993 --> 00:01:58,995

- [sirens wailing]
- [police radio chattering]
29
00:02:15,344 --> 00:02:19,599
{\an8}This was the most incredible story
I had ever heard and seen
30
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:21,684
{\an8}and experienced in my lifetime.
31
00:02:23,060 --> 00:02:26,689
And it was happening in real time
at that moment in Watertown.
32
00:02:26,689 --> 00:02:28,774
[ominous music playing]
33
00:02:30,902 --> 00:02:34,614
One of the suspects was dead.
The other had gotten away.
34
00:02:34,614 --> 00:02:39,076
{\an8}We were out there all night long
searching hallways, garages.
35
00:02:39,076 --> 00:02:42,705
[Martin] The cops aren't speaking,
but people in the neighborhood are,
36
00:02:42,705 --> 00:02:44,999
and people in the neighborhood
are describing a shootout.
37
00:02:45,583 --> 00:02:49,212
We heard the boom, boom!
Shotgun sound type of thing.
38
00:02:49,212 --> 00:02:51,255
Then bap, bap! Boom, boom!
39
00:02:51,255 --> 00:02:52,882
Bap, bap, bap, bap, bap!
40
00:02:52,882 --> 00:02:55,176
Boom, boom, boom!
Bap, bap! Boom, boom!
41
00:02:55,176 --> 00:02:56,677
Back and forth, it was crazy.
42
00:02:56,677 --> 00:02:59,138
Boom, boom! And I was just...
We didn't know what it was,
43
00:02:59,138 --> 00:03:02,266
and then all of a sudden
you just see a hundred cruisers.
44
00:03:02,266 --> 00:03:05,353
We were still going toward it,
and then residents from the windows,
45
00:03:05,353 --> 00:03:08,731
they shouted,
"Hey, it's gunfire. Don't go that way."
46
00:03:08,731 --> 00:03:10,816
[dramatic music playing]
47
00:03:11,734 --> 00:03:16,572
{\an8}We get reported back
that Boston PD are talking to a cab driver
48
00:03:16,572 --> 00:03:20,868
who picked up a Chechen national
from Watertown and dropped him off
49
00:03:20,868 --> 00:03:24,580
over at South Station train station
in Boston.
50
00:03:24,580 --> 00:03:26,290
There's also a report
51
00:03:26,290 --> 00:03:30,878
that there's a pipe bomb found
down the street from the train station.
52
00:03:30,878 --> 00:03:36,008
"Oh my God. What do we have here?
Is it more than the Tsarnaevs?"
53
00:03:36,008 --> 00:03:40,263
"Is our rail system under attack?
Is someone there with bombs?"
54
00:03:40,263 --> 00:03:43,933
We need more information,
so we dispatch more people there.
55
00:03:43,933 --> 00:03:48,020
{\an8}We were literally stopping Amtrak trains
on the rails going down from Boston
56
00:03:48,020 --> 00:03:52,275
to New York City and Washington, D.C.,
and conducting searches of those trains.
57
00:03:52,275 --> 00:03:53,651
{\an8}We were in the command post.
58
00:03:53,651 --> 00:03:56,195
{\an8}We had the head of the Transit Police.
59
00:03:56,195 --> 00:03:57,738
We had the governor.
60
00:03:58,322 --> 00:04:00,866
We realized that the buses
61
00:04:00,866 --> 00:04:04,787
that were going to start running
at 5:30 or 6 o'clock in the morning
62
00:04:04,787 --> 00:04:06,414
could be a means of escape.
63
00:04:08,624 --> 00:04:11,752
And there's a huddle up
to figure out what should we be doing.
64
00:04:11,752 --> 00:04:13,796
[inaudible]
65
00:04:13,796 --> 00:04:16,590
The decision was made
to shut down the city.
66
00:04:16,590 --> 00:04:18,050
[police siren blares]
67
00:04:21,095 --> 00:04:24,932
{\an8}Good morning, everybody.
There is a massive manhunt underway.
68
00:04:24,932 --> 00:04:28,144
{\an8}We have suspended all service on the MBTA.
69
00:04:29,979 --> 00:04:35,276
We're asking people to shelter in place,
to stay indoors with their doors locked,
70
00:04:35,276 --> 00:04:37,445
and not to open the door for anyone
71
00:04:37,445 --> 00:04:41,365
other than a properly identified
law enforcement officer.
72
00:04:41,365 --> 00:04:46,787
And that applies here in Watertown,
also Cambridge, Waltham,
73
00:04:46,787 --> 00:04:51,125
Newton, Belmont,
and at this point, all of Boston.
74
00:04:51,709 --> 00:04:53,127
All of Boston.
75
00:04:53,127 --> 00:04:55,713
[reporter 1] One million people
on lockdown in Boston right now.
76
00:04:55,713 --> 00:04:57,548
As you heard there, everything closed.
77
00:04:57,548 --> 00:04:59,175
[reporter 2] This is just unprecedented.
78
00:04:59,175 --> 00:05:01,052
The city turned into a ghost town.
79
00:05:02,345 --> 00:05:04,055
There was nobody on the street.
80
00:05:04,764 --> 00:05:06,599
{\an8}Everybody abided by it.
81
00:05:06,599 --> 00:05:09,935
[reporter 3] The entire city of Boston.
Residents being asked,
82
00:05:09,935 --> 00:05:12,772
"Stay in your homes, do not open the door
83
00:05:12,772 --> 00:05:15,232
unless you see
a clearly identified police officer."
84
00:05:15,232 --> 00:05:16,859
A remarkable turn of events.
85
00:05:16,859 --> 00:05:19,904
Law enforcement needed to have
unfettered access in the streets.
86
00:05:20,404 --> 00:05:22,239
It wasn't just Boston,
it wasn't just Watertown.
87
00:05:22,239 --> 00:05:24,450
It was almost
all of Eastern Massachusetts.
88
00:05:26,410 --> 00:05:29,372
It was a use of police authority
that I had never seen before.
89
00:05:30,081 --> 00:05:33,584
[DesLauriers] We were surging federal
state and local resources into Watertown
90
00:05:33,584 --> 00:05:37,004
to find the individual
we had identified as Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
91
00:05:37,004 --> 00:05:38,464
[sirens wailing]
92
00:05:38,464 --> 00:05:41,092
[reporter] We have throngs
of police officers arriving here.
93
00:05:41,092 --> 00:05:43,469
I see what looks like
municipal police officers.
94
00:05:43,469 --> 00:05:46,180
I see state troopers. All hands on deck.
95
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,185
Ultimately, you had
about 2,500 police officers in Watertown.
96
00:05:51,185 --> 00:05:52,895
[distant sirens wailing]
97
00:05:52,895 --> 00:05:55,731
Many as far away
as New Hampshire and Rhode Island.
98
00:05:55,731 --> 00:05:56,899
[no audible speech]
99
00:05:56,899 --> 00:06:00,111
They heard what was happening,
they jumped in their cars and came down.
100
00:06:02,154 --> 00:06:05,366
The police continue
to tighten their grip on this area
101
00:06:05,366 --> 00:06:08,577
in which they believe
that suspect number two is holed up.
102
00:06:09,495 --> 00:06:11,747
We had professionals
who understand the law,
103
00:06:11,747 --> 00:06:13,040
understand civil rights,
104
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,335
understand how to do things right,
and that's what was happening.
105
00:06:16,335 --> 00:06:19,130
But it was done with extreme urgency.
106
00:06:19,130 --> 00:06:21,048
[distant sirens wailing]
107
00:06:21,048 --> 00:06:23,134

There's an ongoing manhunt for a person
108
00:06:23,134 --> 00:06:25,761
wanted in connection
with Monday's marathon bombing.
109
00:06:25,761 --> 00:06:28,973
Residents in Watertown
are advised to stay indoors.

[ominous music playing]
111
00:06:32,852 --> 00:06:34,854
[man] My wife and I
have been up following the news.
112
00:06:34,854 --> 00:06:38,441
Then around 5:30 we woke up,
and police officers were coming through,
113
00:06:38,441 --> 00:06:40,067
going from house to house.
114
00:06:42,361 --> 00:06:44,572
Just going house to house,
making sure everything's okay.
115
00:06:44,572 --> 00:06:46,449
- [man 1] Everything's fine.
- You guys are good?
116
00:06:46,449 --> 00:06:47,366
- [man 2] Yep.
- Okay.
117
00:06:47,366 --> 00:06:51,412
The police searched with the assumption
that someone may have abetted his escape.
118
00:06:51,412 --> 00:06:53,873
- Cellar's all set? Everything's locked up?
- [man] Yup.
119
00:06:53,873 --> 00:06:57,585
- Well, we have an open garage in the back.
- We'll just check that.
120
00:06:57,585 --> 00:07:00,671
- [man] Okay. But the attic's locked.
- Okay. All right. Thank you.
121
00:07:00,671 --> 00:07:01,755
[man] Thanks.
122
00:07:02,965 --> 00:07:04,884
[woman] Oh my God.
Look, they're everywhere.
123
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,053
[man] I never want to
wake up to this again.
124
00:07:08,053 --> 00:07:11,432
A lot of people who were upset
when you had police going
125
00:07:11,432 --> 00:07:13,976
backyard to backyard, alley to alley.
126
00:07:13,976 --> 00:07:16,937
[reporter 1] What's the last
24 hours or so been like?
127
00:07:18,105 --> 00:07:19,064
Horrifying.
128
00:07:19,064 --> 00:07:20,608
[reporter 2] What does it feel like?
129
00:07:21,192 --> 00:07:25,279
Terror. It feels...
It's horrendous. It makes me nervous.
130
00:07:25,279 --> 00:07:26,780
I'm scared to death. I'm scared.
131
00:07:28,616 --> 00:07:31,368
[officer] Is there anybody else in there?
Just you two?
132
00:07:31,368 --> 00:07:33,662
Is it one big residence
or is there multiple apartments?
133
00:07:33,662 --> 00:07:35,664
The "shelter in place"
was the correct decision.
134
00:07:36,165 --> 00:07:39,668
He could have been anywhere,
but we felt he was in Watertown.
135
00:07:39,668 --> 00:07:41,462

137
00:07:43,881 --> 00:07:47,426
It wasn't clear where he went.
Was there anyone else involved?
138
00:07:47,426 --> 00:07:50,221
Are there other explosives in the city?
We just didn't know.
139
00:07:50,221 --> 00:07:53,641
[Davis] This investigation
was definitely two-pronged.
140
00:07:54,141 --> 00:07:58,687
One was the hard search
for the suspect in the area,
141
00:07:58,687 --> 00:08:00,564
which took a lot of our attention.
142
00:08:00,564 --> 00:08:02,358
[ominous music continues]
143
00:08:02,358 --> 00:08:06,403
The other part of it was
to understand these two brothers.
144
00:08:06,403 --> 00:08:08,280
- [camera clicking]
- How they did what they did,
145
00:08:08,948 --> 00:08:12,451
and importantly to find out if
anybody else was part of that conspiracy.
146
00:08:12,451 --> 00:08:14,411
[ominous music continues]
147
00:08:19,041 --> 00:08:21,502
[DesLauriers] We subsequently learned
that the Tsarnaev brothers
148
00:08:21,502 --> 00:08:23,003
lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
149
00:08:23,003 --> 00:08:26,590
{\an8}So we immediately sought search warrants
to conduct searches of that residence.
150
00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:32,721
[camera clicking]
151
00:08:34,473 --> 00:08:39,895
The evidence response teams were quickly
finding bomb-making paraphernalia.

[camera clicks]
153
00:08:41,647 --> 00:08:43,732
But Dzhokhar was not there.
154
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,944
We learned that Tamerlan
had a wife named Katherine Russell.
155
00:08:46,944 --> 00:08:51,282
{\an8}A producer saw police
come out of his building with a woman.

[sirens wailing]
157
00:08:52,449 --> 00:08:56,620
[Davis] She met Tamerlan
and became a practicing Muslim.
158
00:08:57,871 --> 00:08:59,873
She was interviewed.
159
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:02,209
- She was not cooperative.
- [camera clicking]
160
00:09:02,209 --> 00:09:05,504
People that are innocent
that see something like this happen
161
00:09:05,504 --> 00:09:09,633
are usually devastated
that their relative has been involved
162
00:09:09,633 --> 00:09:11,885
in something so heinous.
163
00:09:11,885 --> 00:09:14,638
That's what I think is striking
about this interrogation.
164
00:09:14,638 --> 00:09:16,807
There was no remorse or sympathy.
165
00:09:17,308 --> 00:09:21,937
My impression was
that she was aligned with Tamerlan,
166
00:09:21,937 --> 00:09:25,232
and despite
the horrific things that he did,
167
00:09:25,232 --> 00:09:28,110
she was not going to help
the government of the United States.

- [camera clicking]
- [ominous music playing]
169
00:09:31,614 --> 00:09:34,908
I was hopeful that there would be
enough information developed to charge her
170
00:09:34,908 --> 00:09:37,494
because I thought
she was probably involved,
171
00:09:37,494 --> 00:09:39,455
but that never came to pass.
172
00:09:39,455 --> 00:09:42,541
[DesLauriers]
There was not enough evidence
173
00:09:42,541 --> 00:09:44,752
to bring charges
against Katherine Russell.
174
00:09:45,252 --> 00:09:48,505
If you find out that someone
is about to commit a crime
175
00:09:48,505 --> 00:09:50,883
or you suspect
that they're about to commit a crime,
176
00:09:50,883 --> 00:09:54,428
it's not against the law
to just keep your mouth shut,
177
00:09:54,428 --> 00:09:58,849
to not say anything or do anything
to stop it from happening.
178
00:09:58,849 --> 00:10:00,893
[foreboding music playing]
179
00:10:06,649 --> 00:10:09,568
[DesLauriers] It's almost impossible
to control media leaks
180
00:10:09,568 --> 00:10:11,570
during an investigation of this magnitude.
181
00:10:12,571 --> 00:10:14,573
[indistinct chatter]
182
00:10:15,991 --> 00:10:17,117
[officer] Quiet, please!
183
00:10:17,117 --> 00:10:19,411
So we made the decision
to release their names.
184
00:10:19,411 --> 00:10:21,497
[ominous music playing]
185
00:10:28,629 --> 00:10:34,385
{\an8}The dead suspect has been identified
as Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
186
00:10:34,385 --> 00:10:36,345
- [reporter 2] Tamerlan.
- [reporter 3] Tamerlan.
187
00:10:36,345 --> 00:10:39,473
The one still being sought is Dzhokhar.
188
00:10:39,473 --> 00:10:42,142
- [reporter 4] Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
- [reporter 5] Dzhokhar.
189
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:44,603
- [sirens wailing]
- [Filipov] I'm driving in very early.
190
00:10:44,603 --> 00:10:46,313
I hear on the radio their names.
191
00:10:46,313 --> 00:10:49,983
{\an8}When you hear the name Tsarnaev,
that's a Chechen name.
192
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:54,655
Both parents are back in Dagestan,
and Elizabeth Palmer has their reaction.
193
00:10:58,158 --> 00:11:00,077
{\an8}What happened is a terrible thing,
194
00:11:00,077 --> 00:11:04,248
{\an8}but I know that my kids
have nothing to do with this.
195
00:11:04,248 --> 00:11:06,542
I know it. I am mother.
196
00:11:06,542 --> 00:11:09,002
{\an8}[in Chechen] I'm scared for my son's life.
197
00:11:09,002 --> 00:11:12,715
{\an8}They should arrest him.
Bring him in alive.
198
00:11:13,757 --> 00:11:14,591
Alive.
199
00:11:14,591 --> 00:11:17,469
And the judicial system
should investigate everything.
200
00:11:17,469 --> 00:11:19,138
Who is right and who is guilty.
201
00:11:19,138 --> 00:11:21,724
[reporter, in English]
Reporters found the suspects' uncle.
202
00:11:21,724 --> 00:11:24,184
His message to his nephew, "Surrender."
203
00:11:24,184 --> 00:11:30,774
If you're alive, turn yourself in
and ask for forgiveness
204
00:11:31,942 --> 00:11:33,736
- from the victims.
- [cameras clicking]
205
00:11:39,074 --> 00:11:42,870
When I first heard Dzhokhar's name,
I was in utter shock.
206
00:11:42,870 --> 00:11:46,123
{\an8}Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, he is still at large,
207
00:11:46,123 --> 00:11:49,585
{\an8}and police are combing through
the entire city of Boston.
208
00:11:49,585 --> 00:11:52,171
[Aaronson] Dzhokhar was a neighbor,
and he also was a student
209
00:11:52,171 --> 00:11:53,672
at the school where I taught.
210
00:11:55,215 --> 00:11:58,677
{\an8}He was very social. He was charismatic.
211
00:11:58,677 --> 00:12:01,305
He had lots of friends.
He was very popular.
212
00:12:01,305 --> 00:12:03,223
[cameras clicking]
213
00:12:04,391 --> 00:12:06,101
He was on the wrestling team.
214
00:12:06,101 --> 00:12:07,811
[spectators cheer]
215
00:12:08,896 --> 00:12:09,980
[indistinct shouting]
216
00:12:09,980 --> 00:12:11,398
He was a charmer.
217
00:12:11,899 --> 00:12:15,235
People have said to me,
"Why didn't you call people
218
00:12:15,235 --> 00:12:17,321
and say you can identify this person?"
219
00:12:17,321 --> 00:12:20,407
Because this is no way
this could be this kid, so--
220
00:12:20,407 --> 00:12:21,492
Because why?
221
00:12:21,492 --> 00:12:25,162
Because there's nothing about him
that would suggest anything like this.
222
00:12:25,162 --> 00:12:27,247
Politics, religion. Nothing.
223
00:12:27,247 --> 00:12:31,543
It was beginning
to become clearer and clearer that...
224
00:12:32,711 --> 00:12:35,047
"Larry, this is Dzhokhar."
225
00:12:35,839 --> 00:12:38,842
"You know Dzhokhar. He's the bomber."
226
00:12:38,842 --> 00:12:42,054
{\an8}When I found out that it was Dzhokhar,
227
00:12:43,013 --> 00:12:45,015
I couldn't wrap my head around it.
228
00:12:45,933 --> 00:12:48,101
And I had cognitive dissonance.
229
00:12:48,977 --> 00:12:52,231
There was nothing
that anybody could tell me to-to-to--
230
00:12:52,231 --> 00:12:55,108
for me to believe that they did it.
231
00:12:55,108 --> 00:13:00,781
I needed somebody to physically tell me
that they saw them do it,
232
00:13:00,781 --> 00:13:05,077
and I need to trust
that person's, um, perspective.
233
00:13:07,246 --> 00:13:09,873
I first met Dzhokhar
when I first started playing basketball.
234
00:13:10,582 --> 00:13:13,168
He was definitely popular.
Like, everybody knew him.
235
00:13:15,587 --> 00:13:18,131
I remember every Friday
I would go to the mosque...
236
00:13:18,131 --> 00:13:19,174
[man singing, chanting]
237
00:13:19,174 --> 00:13:20,926
...and it's a packed room.
238
00:13:22,177 --> 00:13:24,972
And I see Dzhokhar, and it confuses me
239
00:13:25,514 --> 00:13:28,725
because I assumed
Dzhokhar was a white kid from Boston.
240
00:13:28,725 --> 00:13:33,105
I sit next to him, and I'm like,
"What are you... What are you doing here?"
241
00:13:33,105 --> 00:13:34,731
[chanting]
242
00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:38,360
And then he's like, "Yeah, bro,
I've been Muslim my whole life."
243
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,905
"I just never thought
it was, like, important to, like..."
244
00:13:41,905 --> 00:13:44,658
I'm like, "Bro, we could, like, chill."
245
00:13:44,658 --> 00:13:47,703
Like, you know, like,
"We could do Muslim things!"
246
00:13:47,703 --> 00:13:48,745
[laughs] Like...
247
00:13:49,830 --> 00:13:52,416
We started hanging out,
like, every single day.
248
00:13:53,083 --> 00:13:55,961
I could relate with him
on a level that I couldn't before.
249
00:13:55,961 --> 00:13:58,213
He was humble, he was kind,
250
00:13:58,213 --> 00:14:00,549
he would give me five bucks
to go to lunch.
251
00:14:01,508 --> 00:14:03,343
He got along with, like, everyone.
252
00:14:03,343 --> 00:14:08,098
I never saw him as ideological.
I never saw him as militant. Never.
253
00:14:08,098 --> 00:14:09,933
And the truth is, there were times
254
00:14:09,933 --> 00:14:13,353
when I tried to talk to him
about social justice issues.
255
00:14:13,937 --> 00:14:16,690
He was not interested in any
of those kinds of conversations.
256
00:14:16,690 --> 00:14:20,027
He gave no indication
that he was in the least bit political.
257
00:14:20,027 --> 00:14:21,612
[camera clicking]
258
00:14:21,612 --> 00:14:26,867
His parents divorced and they moved
separately back to Dagestan.
259
00:14:26,867 --> 00:14:30,203
Suddenly you have this rip
through the whole fabric
260
00:14:30,203 --> 00:14:34,499
of what this was supposed to be,
and they all blame America for it.
261
00:14:35,334 --> 00:14:37,085
[Youssef]
Losing your mother and your father
262
00:14:37,085 --> 00:14:40,339
almost immediately after you enter college
263
00:14:40,339 --> 00:14:42,257
has to be devastating.
264
00:14:43,717 --> 00:14:45,886
Dzhokhar and his brother
became a lot closer.
265
00:14:45,886 --> 00:14:48,805
He admired his brother deeply,
266
00:14:48,805 --> 00:14:52,351
like, to the point where I almost
envied their relationship.
267
00:14:52,351 --> 00:14:54,436
[ominous music playing]
268
00:14:55,020 --> 00:14:59,316
{\an8}Now, the relationship
between Tamerlan and Dzhokhar was...
269
00:14:59,316 --> 00:15:02,569
{\an8}In the gym, was extremely similar
270
00:15:02,569 --> 00:15:06,073
to the relationship
between Tamerlan and his father.
271
00:15:07,074 --> 00:15:11,119
Tamerlan was definitely telling
Dzhokhar what to do.
272
00:15:11,119 --> 00:15:14,247
It was almost like it was
when his father was training him.
273
00:15:14,247 --> 00:15:18,293
But Dzhokhar was not interested in boxing.
He wanted to wrestle.
274
00:15:18,293 --> 00:15:20,295
[spectators cheering]
275
00:15:22,631 --> 00:15:24,841
[Youssef] Dzhokhar ended up
going to UMass Dartmouth.
276
00:15:26,093 --> 00:15:27,260
[camera clicks]
277
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,390
He said he was doing well in school.
278
00:15:31,390 --> 00:15:34,309
He enjoyed everything.
He was making money.
279
00:15:34,309 --> 00:15:35,769
Turns out not to be true.
280
00:15:37,604 --> 00:15:39,856
Dzhokhar would lie
that he was going to transfer,
281
00:15:39,856 --> 00:15:43,735
and that his grades were great,
when actually he was failing out.
282
00:15:44,569 --> 00:15:46,488
He's not just the all-American kid now.
283
00:15:46,488 --> 00:15:48,281
He's got a drug operation
284
00:15:48,281 --> 00:15:52,911
that he's been sort of running down there
in Dartmouth, dealing marijuana.
285
00:15:55,539 --> 00:15:58,250
I knew he was selling weed,
but, like, all my friends sold weed.
286
00:15:58,250 --> 00:15:59,876
Definitely dealing in pounds,
287
00:16:00,585 --> 00:16:03,630
but like, not to the point
the FBI is about to knock on your door.
288
00:16:04,715 --> 00:16:09,011
The last time we ended up meeting
was a month before the bombing.
289
00:16:09,886 --> 00:16:12,556
We're about to go out,
meet up with some more friends.
290
00:16:12,556 --> 00:16:14,641
There was, like, two parties that night.
291
00:16:14,641 --> 00:16:16,977
And then, um,
292
00:16:17,686 --> 00:16:19,521
yeah, he gets a call from his brother,
293
00:16:19,521 --> 00:16:24,151
and immediately after he hung up,
he turns to us and he says,
294
00:16:24,735 --> 00:16:26,236
"Yo, bro, I gotta go."
295
00:16:27,738 --> 00:16:30,073
We're like, "You good? Everything good?"
296
00:16:30,073 --> 00:16:32,451
He's like, "Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just family."
297
00:16:32,451 --> 00:16:34,536
[ominous music continues]
298
00:16:36,038 --> 00:16:40,125
That was... the last time I saw him.
299
00:16:41,084 --> 00:16:43,086
[ominous music continues]
300
00:16:47,549 --> 00:16:50,135
[Aaronson] This is the most
impactful thing I've ever been through.
301
00:16:52,888 --> 00:16:56,308
And as a history teacher,
my job is to make sense of this.
302
00:17:03,190 --> 00:17:07,277
It's something I've really never
been able to put together in my mind.
303
00:17:07,277 --> 00:17:09,362
[foreboding music playing]
304
00:17:12,407 --> 00:17:14,409
[music fades]
305
00:17:17,537 --> 00:17:20,916
{\an8}We learned Dzhokhar has an apartment
at UMass Dartmouth.
306
00:17:21,541 --> 00:17:23,585
[suspenseful music playing]
307
00:17:24,669 --> 00:17:29,883
{\an8}Mass state police dispatches
a tactical team to that apartment complex.
308
00:17:29,883 --> 00:17:32,010
[sirens wailing]
309
00:17:33,512 --> 00:17:35,972
I had another HRT, Hostage Rescue Team,
310
00:17:35,972 --> 00:17:39,267
being flown up
on Black Hawks from Virginia.
311
00:17:41,269 --> 00:17:43,563
[reporter] Emotions ran high
as hundreds of students
312
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:45,065
evacuated campus in the morning,
313
00:17:45,065 --> 00:17:48,276
notified via text message
that something was wrong.
314
00:17:48,276 --> 00:17:50,654
My roommate came in and he was like,
315
00:17:50,654 --> 00:17:53,156
"By the way,
we're supposed to be leaving campus
316
00:17:53,156 --> 00:17:56,451
because the guy goes here."
I'm like, "Oh, he used to be an alum?"
317
00:17:56,451 --> 00:17:59,955
He's like, "No, he's the guy
that we hang out with sometimes."
318
00:17:59,955 --> 00:18:01,581
I'm still in shock.
319
00:18:01,581 --> 00:18:03,583
Yeah, I just want to get them out of here.
320
00:18:04,459 --> 00:18:07,879
That was our greatest hope
of finding him alive down there.
321
00:18:07,879 --> 00:18:11,258
[man] A fucking SWAT team
is right outside my fucking door.
322
00:18:11,258 --> 00:18:13,969
An armored car. What the fuck?
323
00:18:13,969 --> 00:18:16,221
We're listening to it live
on the radio feed.
324
00:18:16,805 --> 00:18:19,808
[officer] Dzhokhar Tsarnaev!
Exit the residence now!
325
00:18:20,725 --> 00:18:23,645
Come out with your hands up
and don't move your hands!
326
00:18:24,521 --> 00:18:26,022
You could hear them going in
327
00:18:26,022 --> 00:18:28,483
and talking to individuals,
and telling them to get down.
328
00:18:28,483 --> 00:18:30,527
You were hanging on it
and waiting to hear things.
329
00:18:30,527 --> 00:18:33,572
We thought, "Gosh, Dzhokhar's got to be
one of those people in that room."
330
00:18:33,572 --> 00:18:36,074
"He's just got to be
one of those people in the room."
331
00:18:36,074 --> 00:18:38,160
[man breathing heavily]
332
00:18:39,911 --> 00:18:41,288
[man, whispering] What the fuck?
333
00:18:44,416 --> 00:18:47,460
The bottom line, what we want?
He's not there.
334
00:18:47,460 --> 00:18:49,671
That was a very deflating
experience for us.
335
00:18:51,173 --> 00:18:52,883
[Martin] They did not find a thing.
336
00:18:53,383 --> 00:18:57,137
It came to a dead end,
and they were baffled by it.
337
00:18:57,137 --> 00:18:59,723
[Foley] We are literally
running everything down,
338
00:18:59,723 --> 00:19:03,768
but understand,
pretty much running out of good leads.
339
00:19:08,607 --> 00:19:11,651
They're starting to collapse the search
into a smaller and smaller area.
340
00:19:11,651 --> 00:19:13,403
[distant police siren]
341
00:19:13,987 --> 00:19:15,906
[Evans] One of my commanders, he says,
342
00:19:15,906 --> 00:19:18,867
"We got a couple more blocks to do
before we're done."
343
00:19:18,867 --> 00:19:20,619
[ominous music playing]
344
00:19:21,536 --> 00:19:24,915
[Foley] We felt like, oh,
he's got to be right in these streets.
345
00:19:25,498 --> 00:19:27,375
And we always felt like it was close.
346
00:19:27,375 --> 00:19:28,585
And all day long,
347
00:19:28,585 --> 00:19:32,339
we're getting different SWAT teams
calling in and near misses.
348
00:19:32,339 --> 00:19:34,758
It was just this roller coaster
of highs and lows,
349
00:19:34,758 --> 00:19:37,844
and at that point to say, "No? Nothing?"
350
00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:39,888
"He got away?"
351
00:19:40,388 --> 00:19:41,473
I felt horrible.
352
00:19:43,642 --> 00:19:46,269
[Martin] This "shelter in place"
can't stay in place forever.
353
00:19:46,269 --> 00:19:48,396
It's eating up precious commercial time,
354
00:19:48,396 --> 00:19:50,857
it's making a lot
of citizens disconcerted,
355
00:19:51,566 --> 00:19:54,486
and they're not sure
where he is at this point.
356
00:19:57,322 --> 00:19:59,115
[Davis] And then the governor called.
357
00:19:59,115 --> 00:20:01,243
He had received the call
from President Obama.
358
00:20:01,243 --> 00:20:04,371
And Obama was concerned
about the "shelter in place" order.
359
00:20:04,371 --> 00:20:06,665
President Obama had said that,
"Listen, you can't keep
360
00:20:06,665 --> 00:20:08,917
an entire metropolitan area
shut down forever."
361
00:20:08,917 --> 00:20:12,045
People really were working
on fumes at that point,
362
00:20:12,045 --> 00:20:15,298
so we were going to announce,
that we're lifting the "shelter in place,"
363
00:20:15,966 --> 00:20:17,968
but please be very, very careful.
364
00:20:17,968 --> 00:20:19,928
Don't leave your house
if you don't have to.
365
00:20:19,928 --> 00:20:21,429
We're still looking for him.
366
00:20:25,183 --> 00:20:28,478
In light of the developments,
in the course of the day,
367
00:20:28,478 --> 00:20:31,147
the "stay indoors" request is lifted.
368
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:36,778
The T is open effective immediately,
the MBTA effective immediately.
369
00:20:36,778 --> 00:20:39,614
We are asking the public
to remain vigilant.
370
00:20:39,614 --> 00:20:40,782
If you are out,
371
00:20:40,782 --> 00:20:45,704
there is still a very, very
dangerous individual at large.
372
00:20:45,704 --> 00:20:47,580
Everyone started to go home.
373
00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:51,209
I could see, you know, state police,
everyone starting to pack up.
374
00:20:51,209 --> 00:20:53,211
[reporter]
Police who have been combing this area
375
00:20:53,211 --> 00:20:54,963
actually are being pulled out
376
00:20:54,963 --> 00:20:58,508
after that somewhat
disappointing news conference.
377
00:20:58,508 --> 00:21:02,595
{\an8}And the bottom line from that conference
is that he got away.
378
00:21:02,595 --> 00:21:04,556
{\an8}The younger brother
is on the loose right now.
379
00:21:04,556 --> 00:21:06,599
{\an8}- Much younger brother.
- He's armed, very dangerous.
380
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:08,852
{\an8}Yet the local authorities
come out and say,
381
00:21:08,852 --> 00:21:11,771
{\an8}"You know what?
We're going to ease this lockdown
382
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:16,109
{\an8}and go back and do what you need to do."
The freeze, in effect, is over.
383
00:21:16,609 --> 00:21:18,778
[Foley] It was Friday night.
384
00:21:19,738 --> 00:21:23,867
I probably had slept
eight hours in the last five days.
385
00:21:23,867 --> 00:21:28,079
I was happy to be standing.
And I'm not proud of that.
386
00:21:28,079 --> 00:21:31,041
I'm really not proud of that,
but that's just what it was.
387
00:21:31,708 --> 00:21:34,210
Rick DesLauriers,
he looked around the room
388
00:21:34,210 --> 00:21:39,758
and he saw
just exhausted people, and he said,
389
00:21:39,758 --> 00:21:44,721
"We have nothing viable at this point.
Let's shut it down."
390
00:21:44,721 --> 00:21:47,182
"Let's put a skeleton crew in place."
391
00:21:47,182 --> 00:21:50,935
"Get a few hours of shut-eye,
and let's come back at this fresher."
392
00:21:54,856 --> 00:21:55,857
[Davis] I was exhausted.
393
00:21:55,857 --> 00:21:58,985
I had sent my Chief of Department home
because he couldn't keep his eyes open.
394
00:21:59,778 --> 00:22:03,198
We had lost some SWAT team guys
who had to go to the hospital
395
00:22:03,198 --> 00:22:04,616
because they were so exhausted.
396
00:22:04,616 --> 00:22:07,118
And it was clear
that we needed to take a break
397
00:22:07,118 --> 00:22:08,870
and put some other people in charge.
398
00:22:09,537 --> 00:22:12,749
I get in my car and started
to head to my home to get some sleep.
399
00:22:12,749 --> 00:22:18,755
I was one of the last people
still in Watertown, at my capacity,
400
00:22:19,255 --> 00:22:22,384
because I was literally trying
to find someone to take over for me.
401
00:22:22,384 --> 00:22:24,469
[foreboding music playing]
402
00:22:29,516 --> 00:22:31,393
[operator]
911, this line is being recorded.
403
00:22:31,393 --> 00:22:32,977
What's the address of your emergency?
404
00:22:32,977 --> 00:22:36,314
[man] 67 Franklin Street, Watertown.
405
00:22:36,314 --> 00:22:38,775
[operator] Okay, do you need
police, fire, or ambulance?
406
00:22:38,775 --> 00:22:42,445
[man] Uh, I have a... a boat in my yard.
407
00:22:42,445 --> 00:22:46,908
There's blood all over the inside.
There's a person in the boat.
408
00:22:47,492 --> 00:22:48,493
[operator] Are you sure?
409
00:22:48,493 --> 00:22:50,120
[man] I just looked in the boat.
410
00:22:52,831 --> 00:22:54,791
- [operator] Okay, stay on the phone.
- [man] Okay.
411
00:22:57,585 --> 00:23:01,131
[Evans] A Watertown cop
came running up to me and he says,
412
00:23:01,131 --> 00:23:03,675
"We're getting word
that there's someone in a boat
413
00:23:03,675 --> 00:23:05,760
behind 67 Franklin Street."
414
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,388
And I says, "You're kidding me."
And he says, "Follow me."
415
00:23:08,388 --> 00:23:10,849
[indistinct police radio chatter]
416
00:23:10,849 --> 00:23:16,396
And we followed him quietly down
to the front of 67 Franklin Street.
417
00:23:16,396 --> 00:23:17,981
[suspenseful music playing]
418
00:23:17,981 --> 00:23:20,525
No sirens, no nothing.
A real quiet approach.
419
00:23:22,735 --> 00:23:27,365
We literally were the first ones there.
It hadn't gone out over the air at all.
420
00:23:29,868 --> 00:23:31,327
We went down the driveway.
421
00:23:31,327 --> 00:23:34,581
Myself and the lieutenants
had our guns drawn.
422
00:23:34,581 --> 00:23:37,000
I remember looking up at the heat seal.
423
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,252
You know how the boats
have the winter wrap?
424
00:23:39,252 --> 00:23:44,048
We could see him, like a finger
or a gun trying to poke through it.
425
00:23:46,176 --> 00:23:48,928
We knew we had someone in the boat,
but who was in the boat?
426
00:23:49,471 --> 00:23:51,514
Please be our guy. Please be our guy.
427
00:23:52,891 --> 00:23:56,060
At that point I'm saying,
"Do we try to take him ourselves?"
428
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:59,105
You know, we didn't know
whether he had a suicide vest on.
429
00:23:59,105 --> 00:24:00,315
[gunfire]
430
00:24:00,315 --> 00:24:01,399
[explosion]
431
00:24:01,399 --> 00:24:03,860
We've seen the ammunition
he had on the street.
432
00:24:03,860 --> 00:24:06,279
We didn't know
how many people were in the boat,
433
00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:10,074
so at that point, I made the decision
to call for a tactical unit.
434
00:24:10,074 --> 00:24:11,659
And let's slow this down,
435
00:24:11,659 --> 00:24:15,497
and let's peacefully,
as well as safely, get him out.
436
00:24:16,206 --> 00:24:20,585
[Evans] Can we get a TAC unit
up here, please? 67 Franklin.
437
00:24:20,585 --> 00:24:23,546
[Evans] But the problem at that point is
once it went out,
438
00:24:24,589 --> 00:24:26,466
everyone started to come.
439
00:24:28,134 --> 00:24:29,677
[officer] 468 Sunnybank.
440
00:24:30,220 --> 00:24:33,306
[Evans] Sir, I have a call
from 67 Franklin Street.
441
00:24:33,306 --> 00:24:35,099
67 Franklin.
442
00:24:36,017 --> 00:24:39,437
There's a boat in the backyard.
There's blood all over the cover of it.
443
00:24:39,437 --> 00:24:42,857
I hear on the radio,
"Boss, they found him!"
444
00:24:43,900 --> 00:24:45,026
"You gotta go back!"
445
00:24:45,026 --> 00:24:48,279
[laughs] I'm like,
"All right, I'm down the street."
446
00:24:48,279 --> 00:24:50,698
Spin the car around and go flying back.
447
00:24:50,698 --> 00:24:53,034
The call was, there's a report
448
00:24:53,034 --> 00:24:55,537
that there's a suspect
in a boat in Watertown.
449
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:58,623
{\an8}In hindsight it's almost funny,
but I said to my driver,
450
00:24:58,623 --> 00:25:01,251
{\an8}"Where's the water in Watertown?
Like, where would a boat be?"
451
00:25:01,876 --> 00:25:04,754
{\an8}[reporter] If you're tuning in right now,
there has been what appears to be
452
00:25:04,754 --> 00:25:07,882
{\an8}a major development
in what has been a painstaking search.
453
00:25:07,882 --> 00:25:09,884
[suspenseful music playing]
454
00:25:09,884 --> 00:25:12,387
[Martin] If this individual
is Dzhokhar Tsarnaev,
455
00:25:12,387 --> 00:25:16,933
this guy apparently hid himself
in the boat for 18 hours.
456
00:25:17,934 --> 00:25:22,397
{\an8}From where he abandoned the car
to where he hid himself
457
00:25:23,606 --> 00:25:24,816
was one block away.
458
00:25:26,276 --> 00:25:29,571
How they missed a boat
that's sitting in a backyard,
459
00:25:29,571 --> 00:25:32,031
not see the bloody prints, I don't know.
460
00:25:32,615 --> 00:25:36,035
[reporter] Local police
in the Watertown area have told everyone
461
00:25:36,035 --> 00:25:40,456
forget about what they said an hour ago,
stay inside, don't go outside.
462
00:25:40,456 --> 00:25:43,126
This is clearly a significant moment.
463
00:25:43,626 --> 00:25:46,963
I could see the policemen
coming all of a sudden from all over.
464
00:25:46,963 --> 00:25:48,464
I could hear the sirens.
465
00:25:49,340 --> 00:25:52,427
And I yelled to them and said,
"Stop the policemen from coming."
466
00:25:52,427 --> 00:25:55,388
"I'm all set.
No, don't let everyone come in."
467
00:25:55,388 --> 00:25:57,682
[Evans] Yeah, we don't want
too much help here, okay?
468
00:25:57,682 --> 00:26:00,018
I knew it would make for a chaotic scene.
469
00:26:04,272 --> 00:26:06,983
[officer] Watertown control to cars,
do not approach the boat.
470
00:26:06,983 --> 00:26:08,610
Set up a perimeter.
471
00:26:08,610 --> 00:26:12,113
[Evans] When the whole world
is basically waiting five days to get him,
472
00:26:12,113 --> 00:26:14,532
you can imagine
the police response at that time,
473
00:26:14,532 --> 00:26:16,492
and that's what I had
a hard time controlling.
474
00:26:16,492 --> 00:26:17,952
[man] There's more coming in.
475
00:26:17,952 --> 00:26:20,455
[Evans] When we got
the situation calmed down,
476
00:26:20,455 --> 00:26:21,706
it was nice and quiet.
477
00:26:23,499 --> 00:26:24,751
And then, all of a sudden...
478
00:26:27,503 --> 00:26:29,172
[gunfire]
479
00:26:30,715 --> 00:26:33,051
[distant sirens wailing]
480
00:26:33,051 --> 00:26:35,136
[gunfire crackling]
481
00:26:37,180 --> 00:26:39,182
[gunfire continues]
482
00:26:42,018 --> 00:26:44,228
- [man] That's gunfire. That's gunfire.
- That's gunfire.
483
00:26:44,228 --> 00:26:45,563
Hearing that?
484
00:26:45,563 --> 00:26:47,649
[gunfire continues]
485
00:26:49,567 --> 00:26:51,194
Everyone's diving for the ground.
486
00:26:53,237 --> 00:26:54,864
You know, I didn't know who fired first.
487
00:26:54,864 --> 00:26:57,241
All I know is
I had to get the fire to stop
488
00:26:57,241 --> 00:26:59,702
before we killed
the individual in the boat.
489
00:26:59,702 --> 00:27:02,789
Billy is on the mic
screaming at everybody.
490
00:27:02,789 --> 00:27:04,707
"Hold your fire. Hold your fire."
491
00:27:04,707 --> 00:27:07,585
[Evans] Everyone hold their fire!
Hold their fire!
492
00:27:07,585 --> 00:27:09,879
[officer] All units,
hold your fire. Hold your fire.
493
00:27:09,879 --> 00:27:13,508
[Evans] Everybody hold until we have
the tactical here. All right?
494
00:27:13,508 --> 00:27:15,510
It was initially reported as a shootout.
495
00:27:15,510 --> 00:27:18,012
Of course, we now know
that it was a shoot-in.
496
00:27:18,012 --> 00:27:20,890
- I think over 100 shots impacted the boat.
- [camera clicking]
497
00:27:21,933 --> 00:27:23,726
[Martin] A hundred and twenty-six rounds,
498
00:27:23,726 --> 00:27:26,396
not counting the bullets
that missed the boat.
499
00:27:26,396 --> 00:27:29,315
They were going everywhere,
all over the neighborhood.
500
00:27:29,315 --> 00:27:32,777
A lot of this was coming
from officers who were not authorized
501
00:27:32,777 --> 00:27:34,570
to even be in the area,
502
00:27:34,570 --> 00:27:37,990
who weren't even authorized
to be part of this task force,
503
00:27:37,990 --> 00:27:40,868
but had inserted themselves
into the scene.
504
00:27:41,452 --> 00:27:44,163
When the officers arrived
at 67 Franklin Street,
505
00:27:44,163 --> 00:27:46,708
some of them thought they saw
Dzhokhar pointing a gun at them.
506
00:27:46,708 --> 00:27:47,750
I think what happened
507
00:27:47,750 --> 00:27:50,128
was one officer fired,
everyone starts to fire.
508
00:27:50,712 --> 00:27:53,506
There were things
that happened at the first shootout
509
00:27:53,506 --> 00:27:57,093
and then at the boat
that sort of point out the need
510
00:27:57,093 --> 00:28:03,224
for command and control of various
assets from various police departments,
511
00:28:03,224 --> 00:28:06,394
so that there can be
a really coordinated response.
512
00:28:06,394 --> 00:28:08,146
Those were lessons that we learned.
513
00:28:08,146 --> 00:28:10,273
[reporter] Shots were fired,
we clearly know that now,
514
00:28:10,273 --> 00:28:13,943
and that the suspect is down.
That is the word from police.
515
00:28:13,943 --> 00:28:18,072
Now, whether or not that suspect
is deceased at this point, we do not know.
516
00:28:18,072 --> 00:28:19,323
We wanted him alive.
517
00:28:19,323 --> 00:28:20,491
There's a process in place,
518
00:28:20,491 --> 00:28:23,369
and bringing them to justice,
and... And having answers.
519
00:28:23,369 --> 00:28:26,122
I was extremely disappointed
because I really wanted to get
520
00:28:26,122 --> 00:28:27,957
an interrogation on this guy.
521
00:28:27,957 --> 00:28:30,209
You can't understand
whether it was a broader conspiracy,
522
00:28:30,209 --> 00:28:33,212
who financed this operation,
by interviewing a corpse.
523
00:28:33,212 --> 00:28:34,839
We didn't know if he was dead or not.
524
00:28:39,677 --> 00:28:41,220
[Foley] The state police helicopter,
525
00:28:41,220 --> 00:28:44,348
they have FLIR,
forward-looking infrared, on.
526
00:28:44,348 --> 00:28:48,686
They're infrared cameras
that will pick up a heat, a stamp,
527
00:28:48,686 --> 00:28:50,104
and give you an image.
528
00:28:50,772 --> 00:28:53,483
At this point, I was in the command post.
It was pretty dramatic.
529
00:28:53,483 --> 00:28:56,861
You could see the thermal image
of Dzhokhar lying inside the boat.
530
00:28:56,861 --> 00:28:59,906
{\an8}There was also a live feed
that was going on,
531
00:28:59,906 --> 00:29:01,991
{\an8}and so we were able to observe this.
532
00:29:01,991 --> 00:29:04,952
{\an8}I was glued to the television set.
533
00:29:04,952 --> 00:29:07,121
We were watching the news for so long.
534
00:29:07,121 --> 00:29:11,626
The claustrophobia, the tension,
it was a lot to deal with.
535
00:29:11,626 --> 00:29:14,420
The world was watching this live.
536
00:29:14,420 --> 00:29:17,507
[reporter] Farah, you're here.
I know you're working your sources.
537
00:29:17,507 --> 00:29:19,967
Tell our viewers
what you're learning right now.
538
00:29:19,967 --> 00:29:24,180
Hundreds of law enforcement officers
who have zeroed in on a man
539
00:29:24,180 --> 00:29:25,681
they believe is the suspect.
540
00:29:25,681 --> 00:29:26,974
They have him cornered.
541
00:29:26,974 --> 00:29:29,268
They have a visual,
they can see what he's doing.
542
00:29:29,268 --> 00:29:31,145
We're told to be on standby
543
00:29:31,145 --> 00:29:34,190
because clearly
this could be the big moment.
544
00:29:34,190 --> 00:29:36,275
[helicopter whirring]
545
00:29:39,904 --> 00:29:42,323
I still didn't know if he was still alive.
546
00:29:42,323 --> 00:29:44,408
[intense music playing]
547
00:29:51,374 --> 00:29:53,793
[officer 1] Tango 9'er 3B.
State police air wing tells me
548
00:29:53,793 --> 00:29:56,671
that there's definitely...
There's definitely movement in the boat.
549
00:29:57,380 --> 00:29:59,674
[officer 2] All right,
there's movement in the boat.
550
00:29:59,674 --> 00:30:02,885
The key thing was,
the helicopter pilot said,
551
00:30:02,885 --> 00:30:05,012
"We've got movement.
We've got movement in the boat."
552
00:30:05,012 --> 00:30:06,806
[officer 3] HRT moving up, left side.
553
00:30:07,723 --> 00:30:11,394
[Foley] The tactical team
had a BearCat armored vehicle on scene.
554
00:30:12,895 --> 00:30:15,815
It was used to approach the boat
555
00:30:15,815 --> 00:30:17,942
and to pull back the tarp,
556
00:30:18,651 --> 00:30:21,320
which gave the operators better vantage,
557
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,365
but also gave him an opportunity
558
00:30:24,365 --> 00:30:27,702
to stand up and give up
if that's what he wanted to do.
559
00:30:27,702 --> 00:30:29,787
[intense music playing]
560
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,209
The FBI hostage recovery team director
came up to me, and he says,
561
00:30:35,209 --> 00:30:37,461
"We're gonna throw
a smoke grenade in the boat."
562
00:30:37,461 --> 00:30:40,256
"Are you okay with that?"
And I said, "Sure."
563
00:30:42,216 --> 00:30:43,426
[explosion]
564
00:30:44,010 --> 00:30:45,678
It didn't work.
Then he came back and said,
565
00:30:45,678 --> 00:30:47,847
"We're gonna throw
a flash-bang in that boat."
566
00:30:47,847 --> 00:30:49,974
I said, "Yeah."
He says, "The only problem is
567
00:30:49,974 --> 00:30:52,560
there's 45 gallons of gasoline
in that boat."
568
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,688
He said, "We're liable
to blow up the house and everything."
569
00:30:55,688 --> 00:30:57,982
He says,
"We're going to need a fire engine."
570
00:30:57,982 --> 00:31:00,651
[officer] Fire's coming down Walnut.
Fire's coming down Walnut.
571
00:31:00,651 --> 00:31:04,196
[reporter] We're now being pushed back
by law enforcement with force,
572
00:31:04,196 --> 00:31:06,532
trailing back a little bit
behind a dumpster.
573
00:31:06,532 --> 00:31:08,200
[helicopter flying]
574
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,327
[explosions]
575
00:31:09,327 --> 00:31:11,871
[reporter] Erin, there's been
a series of eight explosions.
576
00:31:11,871 --> 00:31:15,124
That could be these flash-bang grenades
that John King was talking about.
577
00:31:15,124 --> 00:31:19,712
We didn't have an explosion of the boat,
and that didn't work to get him out.
578
00:31:21,213 --> 00:31:22,590
It was like this.
579
00:31:22,590 --> 00:31:25,092
You were on pins and needles,
as I was watching.
580
00:31:25,092 --> 00:31:27,678
- [helicopter whirring]
- [sirens wailing]
581
00:31:33,851 --> 00:31:35,269
They negotiated with him.
582
00:31:38,689 --> 00:31:39,774
They got him to sit up.
583
00:31:39,774 --> 00:31:41,859
[dramatic music playing]
584
00:31:45,529 --> 00:31:46,614
[Foley]
He's standing.
585
00:31:52,203 --> 00:31:54,080
They're asking him to lift his shirt.
586
00:31:56,874 --> 00:31:58,501
Doesn't appear to be armed.
587
00:32:00,836 --> 00:32:02,588
Is this really going to happen?
588
00:32:03,631 --> 00:32:04,799
[radio static crackles]
589
00:32:08,094 --> 00:32:10,137
[officer] He's in custody.
He's in custody.
590
00:32:11,722 --> 00:32:13,265
[Evans] Metro SWAT took command.
591
00:32:13,265 --> 00:32:15,101
Subject in custody.
592
00:32:15,101 --> 00:32:17,353
[officer] Subject in custody.
Subject in custody.
593
00:32:17,979 --> 00:32:20,398
Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
594
00:32:20,398 --> 00:32:22,149
[uplifting music playing]
595
00:32:25,236 --> 00:32:28,072
"In custody."
It was the best words I ever heard.
596
00:32:28,072 --> 00:32:30,241
You could hear people just clapping.
597
00:32:30,241 --> 00:32:32,076
[Evans] Great job. Good job, gentlemen.
598
00:32:32,076 --> 00:32:35,121
The radio, everyone, "Yeah!"
Everyone's screaming, "Yeah!"
599
00:32:37,331 --> 00:32:40,668
I was so worried
that we had the wrong guy in that boat.
600
00:32:40,668 --> 00:32:42,086
And I'll always remember
601
00:32:42,086 --> 00:32:45,756
when the leader of the HR team
came by to me, I looked up at him...
602
00:32:45,756 --> 00:32:48,467
And he's very intimidating
for a scrawny guy like me...
603
00:32:48,467 --> 00:32:51,387
I says, "Is that our guy?"
And he went like this.
604
00:32:51,387 --> 00:32:53,806
"100% it's our guy." Just like that.
And I...
605
00:32:54,390 --> 00:32:56,726
The blood rolled out of my whole system.
606
00:32:56,726 --> 00:33:00,730
That was one of the most
profoundly satisfying moments
607
00:33:00,730 --> 00:33:02,523
of my law enforcement career,
608
00:33:02,523 --> 00:33:04,650
was seeing Dzhokhar Tsarnaev arrested.
609
00:33:05,151 --> 00:33:07,695
[reporter] Good evening.
The tweet just came from Boston Police,
610
00:33:07,695 --> 00:33:08,946
and it reads in all caps,
611
00:33:08,946 --> 00:33:13,075
"Captured! The hunt is over.
Suspect in custody."
612
00:33:13,075 --> 00:33:16,287
There might be residual things going on.
We've got to do investigations.
613
00:33:16,287 --> 00:33:18,247
We got to find out
who else is involved in this.
614
00:33:18,247 --> 00:33:20,750
But this unbelievable manhunt
615
00:33:20,750 --> 00:33:23,836
that we've been going through
for four days is now over.
616
00:33:23,836 --> 00:33:24,837
We've got him.
617
00:33:24,837 --> 00:33:26,630
[smattering of applause]
618
00:33:26,630 --> 00:33:28,799
[man] Fucking scumbag motherfucker!
619
00:33:30,801 --> 00:33:31,969
[siren chirps]
620
00:33:31,969 --> 00:33:34,597
[Davis] It was 101 hours
to run these guys down.
621
00:33:38,184 --> 00:33:42,104
We drove out of the cordoned-off area
into the streets of Watertown,
622
00:33:42,104 --> 00:33:45,900
and the people were screaming, waving.
623
00:33:46,817 --> 00:33:49,570
I feel like we just liberated Paris
in World War II.
624
00:33:49,570 --> 00:33:54,325
There were people clapping and cheering.
It was like a parade.
625
00:33:54,325 --> 00:33:56,494
[crowd cheering and applauding]
626
00:33:56,494 --> 00:33:58,245
[siren blaring]
627
00:34:01,749 --> 00:34:03,292
[Ortiz] There were all these people...
628
00:34:05,878 --> 00:34:07,213
lining up the street.
629
00:34:07,213 --> 00:34:08,798
[voice breaking] I felt so patriotic.
630
00:34:08,798 --> 00:34:12,009
I felt so part of this country
and part of what makes it good.
631
00:34:12,009 --> 00:34:14,095
[crowd] USA! USA!
632
00:34:14,095 --> 00:34:17,014
[DesLauriers] It was a very emotional,
emotional experience for me
633
00:34:17,014 --> 00:34:19,975
to see people
pouring out of the buildings,
634
00:34:19,975 --> 00:34:22,603
waving American flags,
thanking law enforcement.
635
00:34:22,603 --> 00:34:25,856
And it was just...
To this day, it brings tears to my eyes.
636
00:34:25,856 --> 00:34:29,735
I think this is a great closure,
just to end it with him in custody,
637
00:34:29,735 --> 00:34:31,529
and everything at ease for right now.
638
00:34:31,529 --> 00:34:33,989
Relief. We can sleep well tonight.
639
00:34:33,989 --> 00:34:38,285
It's a victory for peace.
It's a victory for love, for the country.
640
00:34:38,285 --> 00:34:40,579
It's a victory for all of us, for Boston.
641
00:34:40,579 --> 00:34:44,667
Boston, baby! Boston strong!
Nothing can tear us down!
642
00:34:44,667 --> 00:34:46,043
Boston, baby!
643
00:34:46,043 --> 00:34:49,588
Students are coming out of the dorms.
They're marching in the streets.
644
00:34:49,588 --> 00:34:51,757
It was almost like we just won the war.

647
00:35:01,559 --> 00:35:04,562
[DesLauriers] Today, the city of Boston,
the city of Cambridge,
648
00:35:04,562 --> 00:35:07,439
and the city of Watertown
can breathe a sigh of relief,
649
00:35:07,439 --> 00:35:11,861
knowing that two perpetrators
who caused so much pain and anguish
650
00:35:11,861 --> 00:35:14,321
are no longer a threat
to our personal safety
651
00:35:14,321 --> 00:35:15,865
and to our communities.
652
00:35:15,865 --> 00:35:20,077
At the time, we read the heading
that said, "Body found on boat."
653
00:35:20,077 --> 00:35:22,746
So we thought he was dead.
654
00:35:23,539 --> 00:35:27,418
So, we're walking down the street.
People are screaming.

[crowd] USA! USA! USA!
656
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,214
[Eddafali] We're distraught.
657
00:35:32,214 --> 00:35:34,758
Our friend just died.
658
00:35:36,468 --> 00:35:40,556
Then a guy on a bike, he's like,
"Hey, did you guys hear?"
659
00:35:41,432 --> 00:35:46,187
And we flip the fuck out on him.
660
00:35:46,187 --> 00:35:49,773
"Get the fuck away from..."
Like, "Leave us alone, you..."
661
00:35:49,773 --> 00:35:54,236
And his face of just pure
and utter confusion.
662
00:35:55,446 --> 00:35:57,072
We met up with a few other friends,
663
00:35:57,072 --> 00:35:59,241
and that's when we found out that he was...
664
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:02,578
He was captured instead of killed.
665
00:36:03,579 --> 00:36:05,581
[crowd chanting boisterously]
666
00:36:20,596 --> 00:36:23,974
I remember coming into headquarters
the following morning,
667
00:36:23,974 --> 00:36:26,060
and Commissioner Davis called us down
668
00:36:26,060 --> 00:36:28,938
and he said, "Oh, come on,
we're gonna go up to Fenway Park."
669
00:36:28,938 --> 00:36:32,107
You know, they want to do
a little tribute up there.
670
00:36:32,107 --> 00:36:34,818
[David Ortiz] All right.
All right, Boston.
671
00:36:34,818 --> 00:36:36,904
[crowd cheering]
672
00:36:39,865 --> 00:36:46,372
This jersey that we wear today,
it doesn't say Red Sox. It say Boston.
673
00:36:46,372 --> 00:36:48,040
[crowd cheering]
674
00:36:50,292 --> 00:36:52,836
[David Ortiz] We want to thank
the whole police department
675
00:36:52,836 --> 00:36:55,631
for the great job
that they did this past week.
676
00:36:57,049 --> 00:36:58,801
This is our fucking city.
677
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,762
[cheering and applause]
678
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,556
And nobody gonna dictate our freedom.
679
00:37:06,058 --> 00:37:08,352
Stay strong. Thank you.
680
00:37:08,936 --> 00:37:13,148
When Big Papi said, "The F-word our city,"
as vulgar as that term was,
681
00:37:13,148 --> 00:37:16,402
I think, you know,
it was a release of a lot of tension
682
00:37:16,402 --> 00:37:17,861
for the whole city at that moment.
683
00:37:18,570 --> 00:37:21,740
{\an8}The whole "Boston Strong" thing
wasn't a gimmick, it was real.
684
00:37:21,740 --> 00:37:23,993
{\an8}If you were living here at the time,
it was very real.
685
00:37:23,993 --> 00:37:25,911
[suspenseful music playing]
686
00:37:26,578 --> 00:37:30,165
Even though we had arrested Dzhokhar,
the investigation was just beginning.
687
00:37:30,874 --> 00:37:33,377
[Swindon] We needed
to start to figure out the why.
688
00:37:33,377 --> 00:37:35,546
{\an8}Who they were, what they were doing,
689
00:37:35,546 --> 00:37:37,006
{\an8}who their associates were.
690
00:37:37,006 --> 00:37:39,008
We need to establish a pattern of life.
691
00:37:40,551 --> 00:37:42,469
{\an8}[DesLauriers] Shortly after
Dzhokhar was arrested,
692
00:37:42,469 --> 00:37:45,180
he was treated for his injuries
by medical personnel.
693
00:37:45,180 --> 00:37:47,725
As soon as he was able
to be questioned, he was,
694
00:37:47,725 --> 00:37:51,061
by the FBI's high-value
interrogation group.
695
00:37:51,061 --> 00:37:54,315
[Ortiz] They were going to question him.
He was not going to be Mirandized
696
00:37:54,315 --> 00:37:56,150
or given a lawyer right away.
697
00:37:56,150 --> 00:37:59,069
That does happen,
especially in terrorism cases.
698
00:37:59,653 --> 00:38:04,408
Part of the Patriot Act allows
this interrogation team to question people
699
00:38:04,408 --> 00:38:09,330
outside of the regular constitutional
protections that a citizen has,
700
00:38:09,330 --> 00:38:12,124
especially when dealing
with an ongoing terrorist event.
701
00:38:12,791 --> 00:38:15,794
[Ortiz] Dzhokhar was not able to talk
because of his injuries,
702
00:38:16,462 --> 00:38:19,173
so he had to write
some responses down, as I recall.
703
00:38:20,674 --> 00:38:23,218
{\an8}That's a judgment
by the United States attorney's office
704
00:38:23,218 --> 00:38:25,304
{\an8}as to when you have
to read his Miranda Rights.
705
00:38:26,430 --> 00:38:29,099
{\an8}[Ortiz] Even when individuals
may ask to see a lawyer,
706
00:38:29,099 --> 00:38:33,062
the questioning can continue
as long as you are justified in doing so.
707
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,400
{\an8}But you have only so much time
708
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,904
you can hold on to someone
without processing them.
709
00:38:41,904 --> 00:38:43,739
[DesLauriers] We searched the boat.
710
00:38:43,739 --> 00:38:47,076
Every little bit of evidence at that point
was of critical importance to us.
711
00:38:47,826 --> 00:38:50,371
What we found inside there
was jihadi manifesto
712
00:38:50,371 --> 00:38:54,500
that Dzhokhar had written inside the boat,
which was one of our first clues
713
00:38:54,500 --> 00:38:58,420
that these individuals had been inspired
by radical terrorist beliefs
714
00:38:58,420 --> 00:39:01,006
and had been radicalized
at some point in the past.
715
00:39:03,008 --> 00:39:05,010
We needed to know
whether there were collaborators
716
00:39:05,010 --> 00:39:06,720
that helped construct these bombs.
717
00:39:09,014 --> 00:39:10,766
The evidence that was on his computer
718
00:39:10,766 --> 00:39:13,852
included things
like editions of Inspire magazine,
719
00:39:13,852 --> 00:39:16,855
{\an8}which was a known terrorist's publication.
720
00:39:16,855 --> 00:39:20,109
{\an8}Directions on how to make a bomb
in the kitchen of your mom.
721
00:39:20,943 --> 00:39:22,861
{\an8}Inspire magazine is the magazine...
722
00:39:22,861 --> 00:39:24,446
The official magazine of Al-Qaeda.
723
00:39:25,656 --> 00:39:27,741
{\an8}[DesLauriers] He was interviewed
for two or three days,
724
00:39:27,741 --> 00:39:30,369
{\an8}but in the end
it did not yield much information.
725
00:39:30,369 --> 00:39:33,372
{\an8}And then he was subsequently
read his Miranda Rights.
726
00:39:33,372 --> 00:39:35,707
But we also were taking a look
at many individuals
727
00:39:35,707 --> 00:39:37,167
who were their friends.
728
00:39:37,751 --> 00:39:39,753
[Youssef] The FBI came down on everybody,
729
00:39:39,753 --> 00:39:42,339
but I know they specifically targeted
730
00:39:42,339 --> 00:39:46,301
my Muslim peers way more
than any other demographic.
731
00:39:46,802 --> 00:39:49,513
I was interrogated for, like, eight hours.
732
00:39:49,513 --> 00:39:51,807
I was 19, I was terrified.
733
00:39:51,807 --> 00:39:54,726
My life was on the line.
I knew it. They knew it.
734
00:39:55,477 --> 00:39:59,189
It felt like we were guilty
and had to prove our innocence.
735
00:39:59,189 --> 00:40:01,567
I think it's time for profiling, though,
don't you, Ange?
736
00:40:01,567 --> 00:40:04,611
I think it's time for profiling
because the profile has been
737
00:40:04,611 --> 00:40:07,656
Middle Eastern Muslims
who have blown people up
738
00:40:07,656 --> 00:40:10,701
or attempted to blow people up
over the last 15 years.
739
00:40:10,701 --> 00:40:14,663
Many terrorists are Muslims,
and we'd be foolish not to look
740
00:40:14,663 --> 00:40:17,124
at this phenomenon and get ready for it.
741
00:40:17,124 --> 00:40:20,335
{\an8}My worst fears became reality.
742
00:40:20,919 --> 00:40:25,048
Not only was it a Muslim
that committed that appalling act,
743
00:40:25,048 --> 00:40:29,261
but also someone I know
and someone who had come to the mosque.
744
00:40:29,261 --> 00:40:34,558
It was a moment of, to be honest,
of... of profound despair.
745
00:40:36,935 --> 00:40:40,022
Later on, we found out
that the youngest brother's roommate
746
00:40:40,022 --> 00:40:42,524
had recognized his picture on the news.
747
00:40:43,025 --> 00:40:45,110
They were working to get rid of evidence.
748
00:40:47,571 --> 00:40:49,323
[DesLauriers] They had
some explosive evidence
749
00:40:49,323 --> 00:40:52,159
that they had disposed of
in a garbage dump.
750
00:40:52,159 --> 00:40:56,079
And we actually recovered that evidence,
and that evidence was used as the basis
751
00:40:56,079 --> 00:40:59,041
to charge these two individuals
with obstruction of justice.
752
00:40:59,041 --> 00:41:02,503
Once they knew they did it
and they've seen their photos out there,
753
00:41:02,503 --> 00:41:05,047
they should have stepped up
and came forward.
754
00:41:05,047 --> 00:41:07,925
If they had,
Officer Collier would still be alive.
755
00:41:08,425 --> 00:41:12,054
[Ortiz] Despite the fact that some
of his friends had lied to the FBI,
756
00:41:12,054 --> 00:41:16,266
we got the impression that this was just
the two of them that were involved.
757
00:41:16,266 --> 00:41:20,854
That they made the bombs locally,
put them together in Tamerlan's kitchen.
758
00:41:20,854 --> 00:41:22,689
I do not believe for one minute
759
00:41:22,689 --> 00:41:26,401
that these bombs were made
by looking on the Internet.
760
00:41:26,902 --> 00:41:29,071
I believe they had help,
and I don't know who,
761
00:41:29,071 --> 00:41:32,199
but it is very difficult
to construct this type of device
762
00:41:32,199 --> 00:41:37,704
and have both of them go off flawlessly
in close proximity with remote detonators.
763
00:41:38,622 --> 00:41:39,998
[Foley] I think some people think
764
00:41:39,998 --> 00:41:42,292
there's some grand conspiracy
that something was missed.
765
00:41:42,292 --> 00:41:44,628
But there wasn't,
and this happens all the time.
766
00:41:44,628 --> 00:41:45,796
There are lone wolves.
767
00:41:45,796 --> 00:41:48,674
This is not amateur hour.
768
00:41:48,674 --> 00:41:51,134
These were professional explosive devices,
769
00:41:51,134 --> 00:41:56,139
and the IED defeat team in Afghanistan
agreed with my assessment of that.
770
00:41:56,139 --> 00:41:59,768
We determined that the bombers
were lone-wolf extremists
771
00:41:59,768 --> 00:42:04,773
who had been inspired by reading
Anwar al-Awlaki's Inspire magazine,
772
00:42:04,773 --> 00:42:07,192
which meant
to perpetrate jihad across the world.
773
00:42:09,528 --> 00:42:12,197
[Fenni] Whenever I hear
somebody speak about jihad
774
00:42:13,198 --> 00:42:18,203
in the connotation
of killing someone, I cringe.
775
00:42:18,912 --> 00:42:21,582
{\an8}Jihad, the Arabic word for "jihad,"
means to struggle.
776
00:42:22,583 --> 00:42:25,711
You struggle to get a good life.
That's jihad.
777
00:42:26,503 --> 00:42:29,965
You struggle to be an honest person.
That's jihad.
778
00:42:30,966 --> 00:42:34,761
You struggle to be a good,
religious person. That's jihad.
779
00:42:35,637 --> 00:42:36,930
Jihad is not...
780
00:42:38,682 --> 00:42:44,813
picking up a gun or making a bomb
and killing innocent people.
781
00:42:44,813 --> 00:42:46,732
[ominous music playing]
782
00:42:48,233 --> 00:42:50,152
[distant sirens wailing]
783
00:42:51,612 --> 00:42:54,114
[Martin] A few weeks after the bombing
and its resolution,
784
00:42:54,114 --> 00:42:59,786
police and the FBI were interviewing
a fellow named Ibragim Todashev.
785
00:43:00,454 --> 00:43:03,040
He was friends with Tamerlan Tsarnaev,
786
00:43:03,540 --> 00:43:06,084
also Chechen and a mixed martial artist.
787
00:43:06,793 --> 00:43:10,631
He supposedly confessed
to killing three men,
788
00:43:10,631 --> 00:43:14,593
including Brendan Mess
on September 11th, 2011.
789
00:43:15,802 --> 00:43:19,389
Brendan Mess was best friends
with Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
790
00:43:20,223 --> 00:43:22,434
They knew each other
from mixed martial arts.
791
00:43:23,268 --> 00:43:26,855
During this confession
in Todashev's apartment,
792
00:43:26,855 --> 00:43:29,066
something very strange happens.
793
00:43:29,066 --> 00:43:32,778
The FBI and the state police say
that he rushed them.
794
00:43:34,363 --> 00:43:37,741
They subsequently shot
Ibragim Todashev several times.
795
00:43:40,243 --> 00:43:42,871
A lot of people had
suspicions about the story.
796
00:43:43,455 --> 00:43:45,791
I think they just shot him.
He didn't do nothing.
797
00:43:45,791 --> 00:43:49,002
He... I know him.
He... He just wanted everything to be over.
798
00:43:49,586 --> 00:43:53,757
The story became more complex
and problematic, if you will,
799
00:43:54,257 --> 00:43:57,302
when it was determined
that Ibragim Todashev confessed
800
00:43:57,302 --> 00:44:02,265
to killing these three men
in concert with Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
801
00:44:04,476 --> 00:44:07,813
{\an8}I think the chronology of it
is important to recognize.
802
00:44:07,813 --> 00:44:12,317
Brendan Mess was murdered
inside his apartment
803
00:44:12,317 --> 00:44:15,237
after Tamerlan found out
that he wasn't going to be able
804
00:44:15,237 --> 00:44:17,322
to go to the Olympic trials.
805
00:44:18,115 --> 00:44:22,077
There was no signs of a forced entry,
which means that whoever did it to them,
806
00:44:22,077 --> 00:44:24,121
they must have known them.
They let them in.
807
00:44:24,121 --> 00:44:25,831
The way these guys were killed,
808
00:44:25,831 --> 00:44:28,583
nearly decapitated
is how it was described,
809
00:44:28,583 --> 00:44:29,751
this was personal.
810
00:44:31,586 --> 00:44:34,715
Jewish friend,
he's living the American dream.
811
00:44:35,424 --> 00:44:38,385
He's got all the opportunities.
He didn't have to work. He's rich as hell.
812
00:44:38,385 --> 00:44:40,554
And these things
are happening to Tamerlan,
813
00:44:40,554 --> 00:44:43,140
and he doesn't have
the same opportunities.
814
00:44:43,140 --> 00:44:44,850
[no audio]
815
00:44:44,850 --> 00:44:46,852
[DesLauriers]
My understanding was that Tamerlan
816
00:44:46,852 --> 00:44:47,936
was involved in that.
817
00:44:47,936 --> 00:44:49,229
There were drugs involved.
818
00:44:49,229 --> 00:44:51,690
But I can't really comment
on that too much.
819
00:44:51,690 --> 00:44:54,943
[Davis] The homicide investigation
in Waltham is still open.
820
00:44:54,943 --> 00:44:57,028
That bothered me.
It bothers me to this day.
821
00:44:57,028 --> 00:45:00,115
There's a lot of unanswered questions
about this whole thing.
822
00:45:00,782 --> 00:45:03,118
[DesLauriers] Shortly after
the triple homicide in Waltham,
823
00:45:03,118 --> 00:45:06,872
our understanding is Tamerlan Tsarnaev
had travelled over to Dagestan
824
00:45:06,872 --> 00:45:09,708
and had engaged in some
radicalization activities over there.
825
00:45:10,709 --> 00:45:14,629
And we believe that was
one of the pillars of the radicalization.
826
00:45:15,380 --> 00:45:19,760
Whatever happened while he was there
must have had profound effects on him
827
00:45:20,844 --> 00:45:22,596
because when he came back,
828
00:45:22,596 --> 00:45:25,766
we know he started to plan
and execute the Boston bombing.
829
00:45:26,892 --> 00:45:28,643
[ominous music playing]
830
00:45:31,980 --> 00:45:34,900
[Filipov] In the summer of 2012,
Tamerlan goes to Dagestan
831
00:45:34,900 --> 00:45:38,361
to get closer to his historic roots
and also to his faith.
832
00:45:40,113 --> 00:45:44,367
{\an8}As a reporter, that means
that the story's going to be back there.
833
00:45:46,453 --> 00:45:48,371
You want to tell people
what's actually happening.
834
00:45:48,371 --> 00:45:50,707
You want to make sure
that people understand.
835
00:45:50,707 --> 00:45:52,918
Don't go by generalizations
and stereotypes.
836
00:45:52,918 --> 00:45:54,711
Here's exactly what's going on.
837
00:45:57,088 --> 00:46:00,675
I spent two months in Chechnya,
Dagestan and Kyrgyzstan.
838
00:46:00,675 --> 00:46:02,385
I'm trying to find people who knew them,
839
00:46:02,886 --> 00:46:06,264
people who might have been around
when Tamerlan was there.
840
00:46:07,349 --> 00:46:11,186
He meets up with young Muslims
who are in this movement,
841
00:46:11,186 --> 00:46:12,687
the Union of the Just.
842
00:46:13,438 --> 00:46:15,315
[intense music playing]
843
00:46:16,066 --> 00:46:17,359
[laughing]
844
00:46:19,736 --> 00:46:21,196
[man, in Arabic] Peace be unto you!
845
00:46:21,196 --> 00:46:24,032
You see the result of bullying
by the Makhachkala brothers
846
00:46:24,533 --> 00:46:29,037
toward their brother
who has come here from America.
847
00:46:29,037 --> 00:46:30,247
[man, in Arabic] This is him.
848
00:46:30,247 --> 00:46:32,791
And also toward
the Jamaat of Kizlyar, represented by...
849
00:46:32,791 --> 00:46:35,418
[Filipov in English] I hung out
with these guys, and I can tell you
850
00:46:35,418 --> 00:46:37,003
they go to beaches,
they have barbecues,
851
00:46:37,003 --> 00:46:39,130
they go to the mosque, they talk a lot.
852
00:46:40,465 --> 00:46:42,467
But the things they say
are no more radical
853
00:46:42,467 --> 00:46:44,469
than anything you hear anywhere.
854
00:46:46,054 --> 00:46:47,764
[in Arabic]
We call for what is approved of,
855
00:46:47,764 --> 00:46:49,474
and forbid what is disapproved of.
856
00:46:49,474 --> 00:46:52,602
And I remind you
to get on the path of truth.
857
00:46:52,602 --> 00:46:54,396
[man] This is just abuse!
858
00:46:54,896 --> 00:46:56,648
Allahu Akbar!
859
00:46:56,648 --> 00:46:58,692
[Filipov in English]
It's not a militant group.
860
00:46:58,692 --> 00:47:00,277
[foreboding music playing]
861
00:47:02,279 --> 00:47:06,867
So I'm trying to confirm or deny
any contacts between Tamerlan
862
00:47:06,867 --> 00:47:09,786
and any of the recruiters
for the actual militants.
863
00:47:10,328 --> 00:47:14,207
Somebody took me as far as you could go.
Somebody pointed the path from there.
864
00:47:16,001 --> 00:47:18,795
I walked up there
and ran into this group of people.
865
00:47:20,005 --> 00:47:23,341
And no, they had no clue.
866
00:47:23,341 --> 00:47:24,593
[camera clicks]
867
00:47:24,593 --> 00:47:28,430
We don't find that moment
where he's sitting there, going,
868
00:47:28,430 --> 00:47:31,349
"Hey, you know what?
Let's... Let's kill innocent people."
869
00:47:31,349 --> 00:47:35,145
This probably wasn't something
he decided when he went to Dagestan.
870
00:47:35,145 --> 00:47:38,023
I think he went to Dagestan
trying to find meaning.
871
00:47:39,024 --> 00:47:40,358
He's got these doubts.
872
00:47:40,358 --> 00:47:43,069
He's failed to make it
onto the Olympic team.
873
00:47:43,069 --> 00:47:45,322
He blames anti-Muslim sentiment,
874
00:47:45,322 --> 00:47:48,033
so he's trying to get closer
to what it is to be a Muslim,
875
00:47:48,033 --> 00:47:49,784
and what can he make of his life.
876
00:47:49,784 --> 00:47:52,621
But he doesn't get his militancy there.
877
00:47:53,663 --> 00:47:56,833
That moment comes
when you come back to the States.
878
00:47:56,833 --> 00:47:59,502
And it didn't change your life,
and it didn't change anything,
879
00:47:59,502 --> 00:48:01,087
and you're not in a better place.
880
00:48:02,047 --> 00:48:05,050
The deeper the brothers get into Islam,
881
00:48:05,050 --> 00:48:08,595
the more they start to associate it
with their own failure
882
00:48:08,595 --> 00:48:11,765
and with what's happening overseas,
883
00:48:11,765 --> 00:48:13,183
where, at this point,
884
00:48:13,183 --> 00:48:16,394
the US is fighting two wars
in predominantly Muslim countries.
885
00:48:17,187 --> 00:48:19,940
You know, if you go by the thing
that Dzhokhar wrote in the boat,
886
00:48:19,940 --> 00:48:23,568
he's blaming
the US policy against Muslims.
887
00:48:24,402 --> 00:48:25,445
And that's what I wrote.
888
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:31,034
A lot of people were really upset
because to some it looked like
889
00:48:31,034 --> 00:48:35,956
by making them look like people,
we were somehow rationalizing away
890
00:48:35,956 --> 00:48:39,626
{\an8}or, I don't know,
justifying or giving him a pass.
891
00:48:42,003 --> 00:48:43,546
I got an email.
892
00:48:43,546 --> 00:48:47,217
"I hope that you or someone you love
893
00:48:47,217 --> 00:48:51,137
gets killed by Islamic terrorists,
so that you know how it feels."
894
00:48:51,137 --> 00:48:54,265
I know exactly how it feels
when somebody you love
895
00:48:54,265 --> 00:48:55,976
is killed by Islamic terrorists.
896
00:48:55,976 --> 00:48:59,562
My dad was on the first plane
that went into the World Trade Center.
897
00:49:00,563 --> 00:49:02,691
And the thing about that one is,
898
00:49:02,691 --> 00:49:04,985
every September 11th
you get to watch that plane
899
00:49:04,985 --> 00:49:07,487
flying into the building
again and again and again.
900
00:49:07,487 --> 00:49:09,364
How many times do you have to see that?
901
00:49:09,364 --> 00:49:13,868
How many times do you have to watch
your father blow up dead?
902
00:49:14,369 --> 00:49:18,373
We're never going to, in any of this,
try to justify what they did
903
00:49:18,373 --> 00:49:20,375
by saying they had a rough time.
904
00:49:20,875 --> 00:49:23,753
But these people
were not born marathon bombers.
905
00:49:23,753 --> 00:49:25,088
They became them.
906
00:49:25,672 --> 00:49:27,424
That is the truth. That's the story.
907
00:49:27,424 --> 00:49:29,509
[ominous music playing]
908
00:49:33,430 --> 00:49:35,390
[sirens blaring]
909
00:49:46,818 --> 00:49:49,404
[Martin] I covered the trial
from beginning to end.
910
00:49:51,781 --> 00:49:54,951
There was no doubt that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
would be found guilty.
911
00:49:54,951 --> 00:49:58,788
What was really at stake
during the trial was the death penalty.
912
00:50:00,999 --> 00:50:04,627
The alternative sentence
was life in maximum security.
913
00:50:04,627 --> 00:50:06,921
[helicopter whirring]
914
00:50:06,921 --> 00:50:10,842
{\an8}[Karen] I did testify,
and I did want to testify,
915
00:50:10,842 --> 00:50:13,178
{\an8}and I also did an impact statement.
916
00:50:13,178 --> 00:50:17,432
{\an8}I thought it was really, really important
that I do that for Krystle.
917
00:50:19,142 --> 00:50:22,645
I really felt like
I wanted to be that voice.
918
00:50:23,313 --> 00:50:25,315
[indistinct police radio chatter]
919
00:50:28,610 --> 00:50:30,779
{\an8}[Martin] When Dzhokhar
came into the court,
920
00:50:30,779 --> 00:50:35,492
a lot of reporters reported
that he looked arrogant and aloof.
921
00:50:37,243 --> 00:50:42,457
I interpret it as resignation.
He seemed resigned to his fate.
922
00:50:43,708 --> 00:50:46,920
[Kevin] And I'll tell you,
when I looked at him, I saw the devil.
923
00:50:47,420 --> 00:50:51,925
{\an8}He screwed up his eye,
and it just looked like the devil.
924
00:50:51,925 --> 00:50:53,384
{\an8}It was, like, red. It was scary.
925
00:50:53,384 --> 00:50:57,138
He would look right at you.
He'd stare right at you.
926
00:50:57,722 --> 00:50:59,265
It was hard. It was really hard.
927
00:51:00,767 --> 00:51:03,561
Listening to some of the survivors,
what they had gone through
928
00:51:03,561 --> 00:51:06,231
and what they would need
to live with the rest of their life...
929
00:51:08,858 --> 00:51:12,028
That definitely stays with me
from the trial.
930
00:51:13,988 --> 00:51:16,157
I think the defense tried to portray
931
00:51:16,157 --> 00:51:19,911
that his brother,
who was older, was domineering
932
00:51:20,495 --> 00:51:24,582
and had an intense,
potentially violent personality,
933
00:51:24,582 --> 00:51:27,001
and that he had succumbed
to his older brother.
934
00:51:27,001 --> 00:51:30,880
He did this because his brother
was forcing him to do it.
935
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,966
He could have been influenced
by his brother.
936
00:51:32,966 --> 00:51:38,513
I think that he felt maybe sometimes
he couldn't say no to his brother,
937
00:51:38,513 --> 00:51:42,350
but he chose to put
that backpack near those children.
938
00:51:42,350 --> 00:51:44,561
His brother was not there saying,
939
00:51:44,561 --> 00:51:46,938
"You have to put that
right there near those kids."
940
00:51:47,730 --> 00:51:51,818
And when you blow up a young family
like the Richards and hurt Lingzi Lu
941
00:51:51,818 --> 00:51:56,281
and the Campbell girl and Sean,
there's no excuse for that.
942
00:51:56,281 --> 00:51:59,284
Don't blame that
on your brother radicalizing you.
943
00:51:59,284 --> 00:52:01,452
I think for me, what indicated
944
00:52:01,452 --> 00:52:06,749
that he knew what he was doing
and that he had the willingness to do it
945
00:52:06,749 --> 00:52:10,086
was not only viewing
how he placed that bomb
946
00:52:10,086 --> 00:52:13,923
and walked away from it in time
to himself not get hurt...
947
00:52:16,551 --> 00:52:19,429
but that shortly after that,
that same afternoon,
948
00:52:19,429 --> 00:52:23,141
there were videos of him
shopping at a Whole Foods
949
00:52:23,141 --> 00:52:25,101
like nothing had just happened.
950
00:52:27,145 --> 00:52:32,025
And then after the murder of Sean Collier
and kidnapping Danny Meng,
951
00:52:32,025 --> 00:52:37,655
there's a video of him
getting snacks at the Shell station. Calm.
952
00:52:39,908 --> 00:52:41,159
Just calm.
953
00:52:41,159 --> 00:52:43,995
There were two things that happened
during the trial that I think
954
00:52:43,995 --> 00:52:46,831
probably led people to believe
that he would get the death penalty.
955
00:52:46,831 --> 00:52:51,461
One was the image widely circulated
by Carmen Ortiz's office
956
00:52:51,461 --> 00:52:58,009
supposedly showing Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
giving a finger to the camera in his cell,
957
00:52:58,009 --> 00:53:01,971
which was interpreted as giving a finger
to the people of Boston.
958
00:53:01,971 --> 00:53:04,974
And then prosecutors
certainly phrased it that way.
959
00:53:05,475 --> 00:53:09,437
The other was the judge
deciding not to allow into evidence
960
00:53:09,437 --> 00:53:14,108
connection to the Waltham killings
of Tamerlan's best friend years earlier.
961
00:53:14,734 --> 00:53:17,862
The defense felt that by connecting it
to the Waltham killings,
962
00:53:17,862 --> 00:53:20,448
you could show that someone
who was that ruthless,
963
00:53:20,448 --> 00:53:23,826
who would just slit his best friend's
throat, would do anything,
964
00:53:23,826 --> 00:53:26,913
and that his brother
was under his influence.
965
00:53:26,913 --> 00:53:30,667
That was disallowed.
That was a huge blow to the defense.
966
00:53:30,667 --> 00:53:32,377
[dramatic music playing]
967
00:53:34,254 --> 00:53:37,215
Kevin and I had both agreed
from the very beginning,
968
00:53:37,215 --> 00:53:38,800
if he got the death penalty
969
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:42,011
or the jury decided it was life in prison,
it would be justice.
970
00:53:42,011 --> 00:53:44,097
[helicopter whirring]
971
00:53:45,765 --> 00:53:48,935
Ultimately, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
was sentenced to die.
972
00:53:48,935 --> 00:53:50,728
When the sentence was read,
973
00:53:50,728 --> 00:53:54,816
he showed no emotion,
and that was the conclusion of the trial.
974
00:53:58,027 --> 00:53:59,529
The press conference for this,
975
00:53:59,529 --> 00:54:02,407
it was held outside
in the back of the courtroom
976
00:54:02,407 --> 00:54:05,660
where victims
and their families were asked to speak.
977
00:54:05,660 --> 00:54:09,872
I want to personally say thank you
to each of my fellow survivors,
978
00:54:10,373 --> 00:54:12,375
and thank them for being here for us.
979
00:54:12,959 --> 00:54:15,253
I have to watch
my two sons put a leg on every day,
980
00:54:15,253 --> 00:54:19,007
so, I mean, I don't know if it's closure,
but I can tell you it feels like
981
00:54:19,007 --> 00:54:21,592
a weight has been lifted
off my shoulders, so...
982
00:54:21,592 --> 00:54:25,013
With the harbor in the background,
it wasn't just closure for them.
983
00:54:25,013 --> 00:54:26,764
It was closure for the city.
984
00:54:39,819 --> 00:54:41,237
[Evans] There's no justice here.
985
00:54:42,196 --> 00:54:44,240
We witnessed four tragic deaths.
986
00:54:45,783 --> 00:54:48,202
People who lost limbs and who's...
987
00:54:48,202 --> 00:54:51,122
You know, they'll never get back
the innocence of their life.
988
00:54:51,122 --> 00:54:54,876
So, to say that it's over,
it will never be over.
989
00:54:56,961 --> 00:54:59,881
You know, I know the Richards family,
and I knew the Campbell family.
990
00:55:00,798 --> 00:55:03,551
They have to live
with the tragedy forever.
991
00:55:05,928 --> 00:55:08,931
[Filipov] There is no closure
for everyone who was there.
992
00:55:08,931 --> 00:55:10,933
This thing is going to always be a memory.
993
00:55:10,933 --> 00:55:14,020
You will never, ever,
ever be able to not have been there.
994
00:55:14,020 --> 00:55:15,980
And it's the first responders.
995
00:55:15,980 --> 00:55:19,275
It's the people
who were maimed and wounded.
996
00:55:19,275 --> 00:55:21,402
It's the people who lost loved ones.
997
00:55:21,986 --> 00:55:25,448
Everybody's going to remember
that moment for the rest of their lives.
998
00:55:26,199 --> 00:55:28,785
[Fenni] It's not something
that is easily forgotten.
999
00:55:28,785 --> 00:55:31,329
It still is in our hearts, to be honest.
1000
00:55:33,164 --> 00:55:35,458
It brought me
to the lowest point of my life.
1001
00:55:35,458 --> 00:55:40,421
I didn't know who I was anymore.
I lost touch with the person I once was.
1002
00:55:40,421 --> 00:55:41,672
Um...
1003
00:55:42,673 --> 00:55:47,845
And, really, I felt let down and betrayed.
1004
00:55:48,846 --> 00:55:53,726
Every year, it just...
It rips up the memories for Karen,
1005
00:55:53,726 --> 00:55:56,270
and it's tough. It's still tough.
1006
00:55:56,270 --> 00:55:58,689
I don't want Krystle to ever be forgotten.
1007
00:56:00,066 --> 00:56:02,443
I lost my friend,
and that was a terrible thing.
1008
00:56:02,443 --> 00:56:04,487
And that's always gonna be
a terrible thing.
1009
00:56:06,114 --> 00:56:08,074
[Foley] It's been ten years now.
1010
00:56:08,074 --> 00:56:10,326
You look back at the footage,
1011
00:56:10,326 --> 00:56:13,121
and you see civilians
1012
00:56:13,121 --> 00:56:17,166
and marathon workers and police officers
1013
00:56:17,166 --> 00:56:22,380
and first responders just jumping in
to save and to do what they can.
1014
00:56:23,172 --> 00:56:25,425
[Davis] It really does
speak to the courage
1015
00:56:25,425 --> 00:56:28,136
and the commitment
of the citizens of Boston,
1016
00:56:28,136 --> 00:56:29,804
to their fellow neighbors,
1017
00:56:29,804 --> 00:56:33,057
but also to stand up
against people that attack us.
1018
00:56:34,308 --> 00:56:37,019
[Danny] I cannot believe
it's been ten years already.
1019
00:56:37,019 --> 00:56:42,442
You know, it's just,
I appreciate that I'm still alive.
1020
00:56:42,442 --> 00:56:44,652
My life could have ended that night.
1021
00:56:47,488 --> 00:56:49,490
[DesLauriers]
Danny Meng was an important hero
1022
00:56:49,490 --> 00:56:51,659
in the Boston Marathon
bombing investigation.
1023
00:56:51,659 --> 00:56:55,872
It was his courage that led
to the neutralization of Tamerlan Tsarnaev
1024
00:56:55,872 --> 00:56:57,832
and the capture of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
1025
00:56:57,832 --> 00:56:59,459
[crowd applauding, cheering]
1026
00:56:59,459 --> 00:57:02,128
[Evans] You know, I've done
a lot of interviews on this,
1027
00:57:02,128 --> 00:57:03,796
and this isn't about the glory.
1028
00:57:03,796 --> 00:57:06,215
This isn't about who was a hero, you know.
1029
00:57:06,215 --> 00:57:11,596
It was about Boston coming together
and supporting what happened that day,
1030
00:57:11,596 --> 00:57:15,892
and supporting those families
that's lives will forever be changed.
1031
00:57:16,851 --> 00:57:18,102
I would like to see
1032
00:57:18,102 --> 00:57:22,899
the Boston Marathon go back
to being this fabulous event in the city
1033
00:57:22,899 --> 00:57:27,945
that is not constantly just overshadowed
by this horrific thing that happened
1034
00:57:27,945 --> 00:57:31,115
because there's so much good
that comes from the marathon.
1035
00:57:32,867 --> 00:57:34,160
[starting pistol fires]
1036
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:35,995
[crowd cheers]
1037
00:57:35,995 --> 00:57:41,125
[reporter] The runners in the first wave
of this Patriots' Day Boston Marathon
1038
00:57:41,125 --> 00:57:42,418
are taking off.
1039
00:57:42,418 --> 00:57:44,045
[audio fades]
1040
00:57:46,839 --> 00:57:48,466
[somber music playing]
1041
00:58:00,686 --> 00:58:02,688
[somber music continues]
1042
00:58:25,169 --> 00:58:27,171
[dramatic music playing]
