Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had a few things to say in court today for the killing of three people and injuring another 264 back in 2013 when he and his brother set bombs along the path of the Boston Marathon.
“I am sorry for the lives that I’ve taken, for the suffering that I’ve caused you, and the damage that I’ve done,” he said Wednesday during his sentencing hearing.
“I pray to Allah to bestow his mercy on you,” Tsarnaev said prior to Judge George O’Toole imposing the death sentence. “I pray for your relief, for your healing, for your well-being, for your health.”
He added: “I ask Allah for mercy for me and for my brother,” Tamerlan.
And just in case there are still those out there wondering whether Tsarnaev really committed the crime, the confirmation came straight from the horse’s mouth: “I am guilty of [the bombings], along with my brother, if there is any lingering doubt.”
