By Denise Lavoie The Associated Press BOSTON » A surveillance video shows a man prosecu- tors say is Dzhokhar Tsar- naev placing a bomb near the finish line of the Boston Mar- athon, just yards from where an 8-year-old boy was killed when it exploded. A hand-scrawled confes - sion condemning U.S. ac- tions in Muslim countries was found on the inside wall of the boat where Tsarnaev was captured four frantic days later. A year after twin pressure cooker bombs shattered the marathon and paralyzed the area for days, federal prose - cutors say they have a trove of evidence ready to use against the surviving sus- pect, but many questions remain. What roles did Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his older brother, Tamerlan, play in planning and orchestrat - ing the attack? Would they really have launched a sec- ond attack in New York? Did federal authorities underre- act to a warning from Russia that Tamerlan Tsarnaev was becoming radicalized? With Tamerlan Tsarnaev killed in a police shootout days after the attack, some of those questions may never be fully answered. "The obvious one is the motivation and how could two young men who were in a country that, from all ap - pearances, was very good to them end up this radi- cal," said former Boston Po- lice Commissioner Ed Davis, who helped lead the investi- gation. The bombings last April 15 killed three people and injured more than 260 near the finish line of one of the world's most famous mara - thons. At least 16 people lost limbs. Dzhokhar has pleaded not guilty to a 30-count federal indictment that carries the possibility of the death pen - alty. The brothers, ethnic Chechens who lived in the former Soviet republic of Kyrgyzstan and the Dages - tan region of Russia, settled in Cambridge, outside Bos- ton, after moving to the U.S. as children with their family more than a decade ago. Dzhokhar's defense team, which includes two of the na - tion's top anti-death penalty lawyers, appear to be build- ing a case that Tamerlan, 26, was the driving force behind the bombings. In court doc- uments, they've focused on Dzhokhar's young age — 19 at the time of the bombings — and the influence his older brother had on him. A congressional report re - leased last month said U.S. intelligence agencies missed a chance to detain Tamerlan when he returned from a trip to Dagestan in July 2012. Russian authorities had warned the FBI in 2011 about Tsarnaev becoming radicalized. The FBI inves - tigated, and his name was added to a terrorism watch list. But he was still able to fly to Dagestan — an area that has become the center of an Islamic insurgency — spend six months there, and return to the United States. A separate report found that Russia was unrespon - sive when pressed by the FBI for more details. Three days after the bombings, the FBI released photos of the Tsarnaevs from surveillance video near the bombing sites. Hours later, authorities say, the brothers shot and killed a Massachu - setts Institute of Technology police officer in an attempt to steal his gun, then carjacked a Cambridge man. "'Where's your money?'" carjacking victim Danny Meng said Tamerlan Tsar - naev demanded of him af- ter jumping into his car and showing him a gun. A week later, former New York Police Commis - sioner Raymond Kelly said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev told in- vestigators from his hospital bed that he and his brother decided that night to drive to New York City and launch a second attack. Meng escaped by running when the Tsarnaevs stopped at a gas station. Authorities said the brothers drove to nearby Watertown, where a wild gun battle with po - lice erupted on a quiet side street, with the brothers shooting at officers and throwing three pipe bombs and one pressure cooker bomb. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed, but Dzhokhar es - caped on foot, leading to an unprecedented lockdown of Greater Boston. Dzhokhar, wounded from gunfire, was found later that day hiding in a dry-docked boat in a back - yard. Authorities said Dzhokhar wrote in pen on the inside wall of the boat explaining that the bombing was meant to punish America for its ac - tions overseas. A federal grand jury con- tinued to investigate months after Dzhokhar was ar- rested. P e o p l e w h o k n e w Dzhokhar say they still struggle to reconcile the seemingly Americanized young man they knew with the one accused of planting the bomb that killed Martin Richard, 8, and Lu Lingzi, 23, a Boston University gradu - ate student from China. The first bomb, allegedly planted by Tamerlan, killed Krystle Campbell, 29.

By Jim Suhr The Associated Press OVerLAND PArK , KAN. » Never one to keep his hatred to himself, Frazier Glenn Cross for de - cades sought out any soapbox to espouse his white-supremacist beliefs, twice running for federal of - fice with campaigns steeped in anti-Semitism. Yet there's scant evi- dence the Army veteran and retired trucker with Ku Klux Klan links ever re- sorted to violence before Sunday, when authorities say Cross opened fire with a shotgun and pistol out - side a Jewish community center and retirement com- plex near Kansas City. None of the three people killed turned out to be Jewish. The 73-year-old, who shouted a Nazi slogan at television cameras when ar - rested minutes later, is jailed awaiting charges that inves- tigators said could come as early as Tuesday. At some point, a federal grand jury is expected to review the slayings, which investiga - tors now deem a hate crime. "We want to express our condolences to the families of these poor souls who hap - pened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and had the unfortunate expe- rience of a first-hand en- counter with evil," U.S. At- torney Barry Gris- som said. The FBI and po- lice have not offered any public explana- tion for what trig- ger e d S u nd ay 's deadly outburst in Overland Park on the eve of the Jewish festival of Passover. While the FBI and other law-en - forcement agencies were familiar with Cross, Sun- day's gunfire was "very random," the FBI's Michael Kaste said. "We don't really see how this could have been pre - vented. There's at least no obvious answer," said Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the Alabama-based Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate groups and had a considerable dossier on Cross. The Southern Poverty Law Center said Cross, who also went by the name Fra - zier Glenn Miller, has been immersed in the white-su- premacist movement most of his life. During the early 1980s, Cross was "one of the more notorious white supremacists in the U.S.," according to the Anti-Def - amation League. He founded the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and served as its "grand dragon" before launching the supremacist White Pa - triot Party, the law center said.
