New pictures of two bombers during the Boston marathon

Are you aware of who identified the suspects? The guy in the hospital with his leg blown off... Jeff Bauman! He's the pale guy in pictures being taken away in a wheelchair.

He couldn't even speak, but he told the authorities that he knows who dropped a bag right at his feet. The suspect, he said, looked directly at him. Once the authorites showed him videos or photos, he picked out one of the brothers.

I hope they give this guy credit for this. It seems that all the credit is going to the police, CIA, or FBI now! ARGH!

As far as I'm concerned, if the FBI questioned the older brother years ago, they should have seen him in the crowd and taken him away BEFORE the bombs went off! OR...should have been deported three years ago!

I completely agree with you!

Probable cause? That being said, I think the brothers were working for TPTB. The guy who supposedly identified them wasn't even bleeding in most of his pictures...those taken immediately after the bombing where his "stump" was resting up on someone's chest (accused bomber, I think) show no blood whatsoever. A little questionable at best.

I'm an RN...the photos and injury are legit. I cringed when I saw them put him in a wheelchair, though. Did you see the color of his face? Gray....ashen. He should have been lying down; he was in shock, but at least he's still living. I would think the ambulances couldn't even get to that area at that time.

The guy in the cowboy hat did his best. Apparently they got him down on a stretcher when they reached an ambulance.

I love Bradley Cooper!

Jeff Bauman, the victim, looks a heck of a lot better. Then again, he had to have the second leg amputated also. So very sad.

I completely agree.

Real injury? Why are Bauman's lips still nice n' rosy? Was he wearing lipstick or does he just have gallons of blood to spare?
He doesn't appear to be in pain or shock either. Look at him in the wheelchair and see where his leg would meet his hip - at his belly button? He also has the world's longest femur.
The guy lost his legs but I suspect it was long before the Marathon.

How would getting your legs blown off make one a hero? Sorry, I just don't get that at all.
