    2018 articles

    Whoever Built the Boston Marathon Bombs is Still on the Loose, Able to Kill Again (January 2018). Another article. They caught the Tsarnaev brothers who did the bombing, but for whatever reason the FBI hasn't been willing to go after a guy painted as the obvious suspect for having built the bombs. I just came across this and the suspect's name is not in the wiki article. The linked articles are almost 2 years old but a quick web search doesn't find new developments. The web search found a white supremacist with the same name as the non-arrested guy, but I don't think they are the same person. 67.164.113.165 (talk) 09:44, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

    Yeah I'm really not sure why theres no mention of Morley, probably because theres relatively little written about him. I'm going to put together a few lines and add him in, he could also likely warrant his own page I'd think? This dude it really seems was one of the core participants in the bombings, though the FBI disapearing him and stopping the prosecution does make it a bit difficult to write much definitively. It'll also be subject to WP:BIO. SomerIsland (talk) 01:48, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

    Add 2020 Death Penalty Appeal.

    Please add that in 2020, Dzohkar Tsarnev successfully appealed his death penalty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Real-Info-tion502 (talkcontribs) 02:46, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

    First sentence says "injuring several hundred others"

    The lead template says that ~264 people were injured, yet the first sentence in the lead paragraph says "injuring several hundred others".

    The Oxford English Dictionary defines several as more than two; 264 cannot mean several hundred. I'm changing the lead sentence from the word 'several' to the word 'few'. If anyone has any objections or alternative suggestions, please share them here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stephenamills (talkcontribs) 06:54, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
