On June 27,
federal grand jurors indicted him on 30 counts. They did so disgracefully.

Charges
include:

  • “use
    of a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death and conspiracy;
  • bombing
    of a place of public use resulting in death and conspiracy;
  • malicious
    destruction of property resulting in death and conspiracy;
  • use of a
    firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence;
  • use of a
    firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence causing
    death;
  • carjacking
    resulting in serious bodily injury;
  • interference
    with commerce by threats or violence; and
  • aiding and
    abetting.”

Tsarnaev also
faces 15 Massachusetts charges.

Murder, Inc.
is official US policy. Previous articles explained. State-sponsored
assassins kill.

They include
FBI, CIA, DEA, police, and private military contractor operatives.
They reign terror globally. They do so in US communities. They do
it with impunity. They support wealth, power and privilege. They
target freedom.

They’re responsible
for Boston Marathon bombings state terror. The official story’s
false. It doesn’t wash. They killed killed Tamerlan Tsarnaev. He
and Dzhokhar were set up. They were convenient patsies.

An image showed
Tamerlan trying to surrender. He was lying prone with his arms outstretched.
He held no weapon. None was near him. No blood was visible. He was
murdered in cold blood. His body was riddled with bullets from head
to toe.

Dzhokhar likely
tried to surrender. Local and/or federal assassins tried to kill
him. He was shot multiple times. He survived. A throat wound prevented
him from speaking for weeks.

In late May,
he did so for the first time. He
called his mother
in Dagastan. They had an emotional six-minute
conversation. His wounds are healing. He can walk. He’s much better
now. He said he and Tamerlan are innocent.

They were set
up. Police, FBI, other federal agencies, and private military contractor
firm Clarity International bear full responsibility.

Obama heads
rogue US governance. Justice is a four-letter word. Attorney General
Eric Holder subverts it. He shames the office he holds. He does
so in defense of privilege.

He enforces
police state harshness. He defends the indefensible. He persecutes
innocent victims. He wrongfully charges them. He reflects gross
injustice. He belongs in prison, not high office.

“This
indictment is the result of exemplary cooperation between federal
prosecutors and a wide range of federal, state, and local law enforcement
agencies to investigate the horrific attacks on the Boston Marathon
two months ago,” he said.

“The department
is firmly committed to achieving justice on behalf of all who were
affected by these senseless acts of violence.”

“And today’s
action proves our unyielding resolve to hold accountable – to the
fullest extent of the law – anyone who would threaten the American
people or attempt to terrorize our great cities.”

“I would
like to thank our law enforcement partners, the FBI, the Department’s
National Security Division, the US Attorney’s Office for the District
of Massachusetts, and every investigator, agent, officer, attorney,
analyst, and support staff member whose courage and commitment continues
to make our communities and our nation safer.”

FBI head Robert
Mueller exceeds the worst of J. Edgar Hoover. Rule of law principles
don’t matter. They vanished entirely on his watch.

He’s involved
in unprecedented mass surveillance. He’s perhaps responsible for
all US terror plots. He entraps victims lawlessly. They’re falsely
charged. They’re hung out to dry for state-sponsored crimes.

He wages war
on Islam. He targeted numerous innocent Muslims.They’re convenient
US “enemies.” They’re vulnerable. They’re guilty only
of being in America at the wrong time. They committed no crimes.
They’re falsely charged. They’re wrongfully imprisoned.

Praying to
the wrong god is dangerous. In America, it’s not tolerated. It risks
persecution, false charges, prosecution, conviction and imprisonment.
Victims are tortured. Some are murdered in cold blood.

“Today’s
indictment is the result of the dedicated and collective efforts
of law enforcement and intelligence partners, working with a sense
of urgency and purpose to find those responsible for these deadly
attacks,” said Mueller.

“These
continuing efforts reflect the pursuit of justice for those who
lost their lives and for the scores of individuals who were injured.”

Dzhokhar’s
indictment reflects police state injustice. It’s harsh and unconscionable.
He’s wrongfully charged. Allegations claim he and Tamerlan “conspired
to use improvised explosive devices (IEDs) against people, property,
and places of public use.”

It claims they
did so among Boston Marathon spectators. Two bombs detonated moments
apart. Three deaths resulted. Others were injured.

“The indictment
alleges that the IEDs were constructed from pressure cookers, explosive
powder, shrapnel, adhesives, and other items and were designed to
shred skin, shatter bone, and cause extreme pain and suffering,
as well as death.”

It falsely
claims both brothers “armed with five IEDs, a Ruger P95 semi-automatic
handgun, ammunition, a machete, and a hunting knife, drove in their
Honda Civic to the MIT campus, where they shot MIT Police Officer
Sean Collier and attempted to steal his service weapon.”

It charges
them with Collier’s death. They had nothing to do with it. They’re
falsely accused of “carjack(ing) a Mercedes and kidnapp(ing)
the driver and forc(ing) him to drive to a gas station, robbing
him of $800 along the way.”

Allegedly the
driver escaped. How wasn’t explained. The entire story was invented.
It’s untrue. It doesn’t wash.

It alleges
both brothers drove to Watertown. Why there wasn’t explained. They
lived in Cambridge. Police allegedly tried to arrest them.

Their allegations
only are told. Truth and full disclosure’s suppressed. Lies, damn
lies, and state-sponsored viciousness substitute. Media scoundrels
go along. They repeat what demands condemnation. Doing so assures
court of public opinion conviction.

DOJ claims
both brothers fired at police and “used four additional IEDs
against them.” They allegedly drove their vehicle “directly
at” police. Claiming it reads like bad fiction.

You can’t make
this stuff up. Authorities do out of whole cloth. It’s done repeatedly.
It’s done to convict. Victims are hung out to dry. They’re made
to pay for state-sponsored crimes.

It’s happens
often. Thousands of political prisoners fill America’s gulag. It’s
the world’s largest. It’s the shame of the nation.

It holds society’s
most disadvantaged. Corporate crooks and state-sponsored ones remain
free. They plunder, ravage and murder egregiously. They do so with
impunity.

They do it
with the full faith, blessing, and encouragement of government.
They do so maliciously. They do it willfully. They do it shamelessly.
They do it repeatedly. They do it unapologetically. Innocent victims
face false accusations. It’s the American way.

Seventeen charges
against Dzhokhar call for life in prison or capital punishment.
Others authorize five years to life. On July 10, he’ll be arraigned.
He’s already guilty by accusation.

US-style justice
works that way. Trials are rigged. They’re pro forma. Hanging judges
preside. Jurors are intimidated to convict. Innocent victims are
helpless.

Justice is
systematically denied. It’s a four-letter word. Police states operate
this way. America’s by far the worst. Dzhokhar at best faces life
imprisonment.

He’ll likely
endure Supermax harshness. Perhaps in isolation. So-called “ultramax”
cells have virtually no human contact, not even with guards.

They’re for
prisoners called “the worst of the worst.” Allegedly they’re
considered too dangerous for general population circulation. They’re
for ones America imposes unconscionable harshness. It reflects monstrous
viciousness.

DOJ’s National
Institute of Corrections calls Supermax prisons “highly restrictive,
high-custody housing units within a secure facility.”

They “isolate
inmates from the general prison population and from each other due
to grievous crimes, repetitive assaultive or violent institutional
behavior, the threat of escape or actual escape from high-custody
facilit(ies), or inciting or threatening to incite disturbances
in a correctional institution.”

States have
their own facilities. Florence, CO is America’s sole federal one.
It’s called “the Harvard” of US prisons. It’s easier to
get into. It’s virtually impossible to escape.

They cost two
to three times more than conventional prisons. They feature high-tech
security. Walls, floors, ceilings and doors are built out of reinforced
materials.

State-of-the-art
electronic systems minimize or prevent guard-inmate contact. Moving
prisoners requires multiple officers.

They’re confined
in windowless single cells 23 hours a day. They measure about 7
by 12 feet. They have a shower and concrete bed.

They have virtually
no work, social contact, education, recreation, rehabilitation or
personal privacy.

They’re electronically
monitored 24 hours a day. Many have no human contact. Others have
little. They spend years up to life this way.

It’s intolerable.
It violates Eight Amendment protection. It’s cruel and unusual punishment.
It destroys mind, body and spirit.

Prisoners experience
severe anxiety, panic attacks, lethargy, insomnia, nightmares, dizziness,
irrational anger, confusion, memory and appetite loss, hallucinations,
suicidal thoughts, paranoia, and profound despair and hopelessness.

They’re entombed.
They’re caged like wild animals. Normal prisoners become sociopaths.
Strong-willed ones break. Longterm isolation creates monsters. Many
suffer irreversible trauma. Some go mad.

Dzhokhar’s
future looks grim. Conviction is certain. He’ll join America’s living
dead. He’ll do so out of sight and mind. Innocence can’t save him.
US-style criminal injustice works this way.
