    Don't know if this has been mentioned but suspect #2 with the white hat looks like Ricky Rubio. Someone post a picture of the two to compare.;)

    I thought earlier they said they had cornered the 2nd suspect? So he's still at large?

    It's best not to follow this too closely for a few hours. All these multiple news sources throwing stories out there that aren't 100% accurate because they are trying to be the FIRST to break a new twist to the story.

    I've heard time and time again that these two suspects have NO CONNECTION with the marathon bombs, then I'm hearing a definite connection, I'm hearing the 2nd suspect was cornered but turned into Houdini and got away from them.

    One thing I think we could all do without is people posting random un-funny and un-informative tweets.

    Where did you hear that? I know there's a lot of info out there, but it is my understanding the FBI indicated these guys were suspects yesterday and that no one had pointed to them previously. And that no one has recanted they were suspects.

    The NY Post didn't post their names or their facebook pages. The threats that Moroccan kid got on his Facebook were from morons who found them following these internet detectives - not from the NY Post. Their deserve ridicule too, but let's not pretend they are the only ones.

    My initial speculation (and that's really all we do here) was actually "domestic lone wolf" and I also posted that on this thread. But some evidence seems to come up about their possible motive. I don't think I am linking anything. Read the Youtube page.

    Publishing personal information has been treated as a pretty serious no-no, even by the internet detectives. Morons are going to moron. I don't see that as a reason people shouldn't be allowed to kick around theories, as long as you're not endangering someone, which no one here is doing.
