Rep. Rogers: FBI Pursuing ‘Persons Of Interest’ In Boston Probe

Investigators are pursuing other “persons of interest” who may be linked to the deadly bombings at the Boston Marathon, a US lawmaker said on Sunday.

“There are still persons of interest in the United States that the FBI would like to have conversations with,” Congressman Mike Rogers, Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, told ABC’s “This Week.” He declined to provide a number.

Rogers’ comment came as US media reported that Russian authorities secretly wiretapped the mother of the brothers and recorded her discussing jihad in vague terms during a 2011 telephone conversation.

The Russians only turned over the information to their US counterparts in recent days, according to CNN.

A US official with knowledge of the investigation who confirmed the intercept to the US television network declined to confirm who was on the other line.

Bored out of their skulls obstructing every piece of legislation that comes their way, they leap into action when they can hitch their wagons to a tragedy.

If she knew about it or instigated it she needs to be prosecuted.
