Three friends of Tamerlan Tsarnaev were brutally slaughtered in 2011 and marijuana was spread all over their dead bodies. Tamerlan Tsarnaev would have been offended by drug use, me thinks, because he&#8217;s a Muslim and he didn&#8217;t drink or smoke. However, Tamerlan&#8217;s younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was known by many \u201cas a bit of a druggie\u201d and one of the three murdered men had already plead guilty to possession to sell marijuana. Is that a motive for slitting three men&#8217;s throats and spreading marijuana all over their dead bodies? Tamerlan did not attend Brendan&#8217;s funeral 3 years ago, whom he said was his best friend. Now local Boston newspapers are wondering? Another question, that intrigues inquiring minds. The bodies were found on September 12, 2011, but according to Wikipedia, the murders occured on 9-11-11. Hummmmmm!\u00a0 We all have told that dates mean a lot to Muslim terrorists.\u00a0 Curious, aye? \u25ac<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/watchwomanonthewall\/author\/dcalvin\/\"><span style=\"color: #0099ff\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Donna Calvin<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #0099ff\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><b> \u25ac Monday, April 22, 2013 <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0Item #2 of 2 (Excerpt)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>FROM WIKIPEDIA:<\/strong> According to the Forward, &#8220;<a title=\"BuzzFeed\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/BuzzFeed\">BuzzFeed<\/a> spoke with a man named Ray, who now believes that Tsarnaev could have played a role in the unsolved crime.&#8221; who claimed that , &#8220;&#8216;Tam wasn\u2019t there at the memorial service, he wasn\u2019t at the funeral, he wasn\u2019t around at all&#8230; And he was really close with Brendan.
