The defenses in the two murder trials gripping Bostonone with Aaron
Hernandez, the other with now-convicted Dzhokhar Tsarnaevhave a lot in
common.
.
If the jury has any sympathy for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the sole surviving
bomber of the 2013 marathon attacks, they didnt show it this week. After
more than a month of testimony and arguments, the 12-person panel took
just a day and a half to answer the 99 questions on the verdict sheet and
find him guilty of all 30 counts.
.
The bombs he set off with his brother Tamerlan brutally killed three
people, and injured hundreds of others. Hes also been convicted of
carjacking and kidnapping, murdering MIT police officer Sean Collier,
seriously injuring MBTA officer Richard Donahue, as well as firearm and
destruction of property charges.
.
Because hes being tried capitally, the jury will now hear evidence,
arguments, and testimonies in the sentencing phase of the trial. Lawyers
from both sides present their reasons for and against preserving the
21-year-olds life.
.

.
The two cases have captured the publics imagination not just because of
the horrific nature of the crimes, but because of the strange and twisted
narratives surrounding the defendants themselves.
.
To make matters even stranger, the cases against the tatted tight end and
the moppy-headed stoner-turned-terrorist are not entirely dissimilar.
.
Hernandez was once a rising star from Bristol, Conn. He played for a team
thats had more Super Bowl wins in the last 15 years than any other team in
the NFL. His is a tale of rags to richesand then a very great fall.
.
Tsarnaev was 19 years old when he set off a bomb at the Boston Marathon
finish line. The horrific crime shocked companions of the doe-eyed bomber.
He may have been dropping out of college, but before the bombing he was
extremely popular and well liked. The captain of his high school wrestling
team, he had a large group of friends from whom he hid his demonic plan.
