Tamerlan Tsarnaev. People gather at a makeshift memorial for victims near the site of the Boston Marathon bombings a day after the second suspect was captured on April 20, in Boston, Mass.
After weeks of interrogation, Russell's mother Judith picked up her daughter and granddaughter and drove them home to Kingston, R. Soon after the move, Alina confirmed that Russell had remarried and had another baby.
According to those close to her, she now just wants to live a quiet life raising her children and put this all behind her. While the 1st U. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld nearly all of Tsarnaev's convictions, with the exception of three, it invalidated the capital sentences and ordered a new sentencing proceeding. The lower court ruled the district judge who oversaw Tsarnaev's trial abused his discretion by rejecting requests to ask prospective jurors specific questions about pretrial media coverage they may have seen or read about Tsarnaev's case.
The lower court also found the district court erred during the penalty phase of the trial by excluding evidence that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was allegedly involved in a triple murder two years before the Boston Marathon bombing — on the 10th anniversary of the September 11, , terror attacks — which would have strengthened the central theory from Tsarnaev's lawyers that he acted under his older brothers' influence.
The evidence excluded during the sentencing portion of the trial was the focus for much of the arguments, with Justice Elena Kagan peppering Feigin with questions about other evidence regarding Tamerlan Tsarnaev's conduct that was introduced during the trial, including that he shouted at people and assaulted a student. Feigin said allowing evidence about Tamerlan Tsarnaev's alleged role in the murders would have "sidetracked the proceedings and consumed a disproportionate amount of it focusing on Tamerlan," rather than his younger brother.
Requiring a new penalty phase in the case, he warned, would also inflict further harm on the victims, who would have to testify again about their experiences. Justice Samuel Alito expressed concerns that allowing evidence about the earlier triple murders would have opened the door to a "mini-trial" during Tsarnaev's own trial that focused on the alleged crimes of his older brother, who is no longer alive.
But Ginger Anders, who argued on behalf of Tsarnaev, said evidence about the earlier crimes would have "changed the terms of the debate," as the government downplayed the influence Tamerlan Tsarnaev had on his younger brother during the penalty phase.

On the surface, at least, the younger Tsarnaev brother seemed to be thriving in America, but his older brother, Tamerlan, was clearly struggling.
The year-old once had dreams of boxing in the Olympics, representing the United States. Julian Pollard was one of his sparring partners. Tamerlan was a top Golden Gloves boxer. But for all his talent, it seems he still didn't feel entirely welcome here, telling a photographer who took photos published in , "I don't have a single American friend because I don't understand them.
And then Pollard noticed a big change in Tamerlan. He was, ah, he only spoke about his faith. He was big into religion. Tamerlan attended a Mosque in Cambridge with his brother. On Saturday, a spokeswoman said it is cooperating with authorities and issued a statement:.
CBS News spoke by phone to a woman whose friend became Tamerlan's wife and the mother of his child.
