Does Dzhokhar know that his brother is dead? I know D hit him with a car, but D might not realize

his brother is dead.

The reason I am asking this is that I wonder if he is answering in a certain way if he thinks his brother is alive and he needs to "protect" him by being sure they both say the same thing.

If he knows the brother is dead, he might answer a whole lot differently.

I don't know. If I were the interrogators, I'd imply to the kid he's alive and spilling the beans. TwilightGardener Apr 2013 #3

See if the kid tells the truth, if he thinks his brother is cooperating. Is that evil of me?

So I think he can figure out his brother is dead.

It seems to me that could have been D's way of saying, "You asshole! Look what you dragged me into!" So maybe he wouldn't be protective of big brother now. But, quien sabe?

They are the ones he was probably going for. Not his brother.

Only D knows who he was gunning for, if, indeed, he was gunning for someone.
