I think it might be a good idea to go ahead and release the image of the suspect.  I'm pretty sure the real culprit has already gone "underground" and if he has half a brain he's assuming that they're on to him.  And I'm sure all the innocent people being pointed out in these pictures would appreciate their friends, neighbors & strangers treat them like suspects.

Ya think maybe the authorities might not want the bad guy knowing they know...

Would that make any difference at this point?  Like I said, if he has half a brain he's already acting as if they know.

Awful, I've been getting spam with phishing links that has a subject regarding Boston Marathon explosions.

Yes, yes he did.  But I've been waiting for almost a day to post that line. :P

And they're releasing the images.  They identified a second guy.  First guy is darker skinned, possibly middle eastern, but the second guy looks white to me.

They just told everyone to go to fbi.gov to get the pictures-- and the site has crashed :rolleyes:

Some dudes from that region have naturally pale skin.  My boss is Iranian and his skin is paler than mine, and I'm entirely of northern European ancestry myself. :)

One of the weirdest moments of my life was the day I was moving out of my dorm room in Bloomington after a summer Russian workshop.  While I'm packing up to leave, the guy, a Russian-American, starts to explain that the Chechen war happened because Chechens are "n******".  This was late summer, and the dude was super, super tanned-way more tanned than any Caucasian I've ever met could get.  :lol:

I was going by his profile-- it looked more European than Semitic or whatever to me.  But the second time I looked on the video he did look maybe a little more non-European from the front.  Hopefully the pics will be clearer than they appeared during the briefing.

Having trouble getting to the individual pics but they are here: http://www.fbi.gov/news/updates-on-investigation-into-multiple-explosions-in-boston/updates-on-investigation-into-multiple-explosions-in-boston

Guy #1 looks like he could be Indian or Pakistani.

I predict that they will find that these two had nothing to do with the bombing. They're only "clue" is a similar black backpack. Hell, 4chan found how many people with similar backpacks?
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

That may or may not turn out to be the case.
