Two explosions at Boston marathon finish line

[Hunter]

Here is another interesting read on Mulugetta:

[divideandconquer]

Did we ever figure out who Mike Mulugeta is, he was named by BPD and the media as being suspect 1 along with the Brown U kid Sunil, so we know who Sunil is but who the fuck is Mike Mulugeta. All night Thursday it was THOSE TWO then about 5 am in the morning Friday it suddenly changed without explanation to The Brothers Karamazov.


So does anyone know who our boy Mike Mulugeta even is, is he a real person or some fiction?

I want to know why both of their names were heard over the police scanners just prior to 1 AM Friday morning according to NewsBreakers?

I am just going to drop these two pictures here for the sake of posterity, they are the best and most clear HD pics I have seen of them, if it turns out they are framed or whatever the pics could be useful for future internetz driods in 100 years.

Good stuff, good idea to document it, the guy running with shredded pants is very interesting and FB found out a lot about the guy who took that pic and video, he was sort of a jack of all trades righthand/hatchetman for mid east relations for Romney's Bain Corporation, which usually means when you put all the letters together and buy a couple of vowels---C I A front employment/cover. IMO of course.

Ben Throndyke is his name as I understand it.

Also as sevral articles over at Naturalnews.com points out, those security guys dressed in the 511 BDUs are standing ON GROUND ZERO then just before the bombs went off they somehow knew to get out of that position and were then strategically placed about 50 yards away in the middle of the road facing the bomb site. I am still not satisfied with any explanation I have read as to why they were there and who paid them, if CRAFT security or Blackwater were hired by the city, because they dont for free, then that is taxpayer money and it should be disclosed to the public how much they were paid and why they were there.

It's worth keeping in mind that the cop scanners aren't tuned to a single crime or investigation. There's lots of Mulugetas in Boston.

Seconded.

not a real person. "mike" was phonetic alphabet...

Ah, thanks. So, just the last name. Hmmm.

By the way, again, I am really getting fed up with all these condemnations of "wannabe detectives" on "witch hunts", as if having one's photo circled with MS Paint is comparable to being burned alive. Yeah, if some idiots went after the Moroccan kid, he might very well have been burned at the stake. But, that's what laws and police are for (I could've sworn they were good for something, sometimes) and, oh right, not a single person harmed the kid, even after the NY Post plastered his face across the entire country of non-Reddit readers and then the TV news outlets ran with that because, well, the NY Post is "real" media, right? The truly despicable parties are the newspapers and TV stations, not the folks on the internet who are doing a public service, one the other media are too compromised to attempt. So, a couple people get wrongly fingered. They weren't arrested. They weren't tried. They weren't convicted. They weren't executed. You know, like, some actual innocent people are? And people are sniping at Reddit furries for being "wannabe detectives"? I'd much rather have my face wrongly circled by a 4chan fiend than draw the attention of some real detectives, real prosecutors, real judges. People, liberals most hypocritically, are so willing to bash the upstart amateurs with good (mostly, one hopes) intentions all while groveling at the feet of undeserving authorities. Makes me sick. "But someone's reputation could be damaged!" And so then, it can be repaired, just as rapidly, as it was. Now the Moroccan kid has the bonus of a massive amount of attention and support. Should, he, uh, thank Reddit and 4chan? I would rather inconvenience 1000 innocent people than let a single mass-murdering ghoul escape our attention. Taking care is fine. But a little recklessness is not some grave sin, not in the pursuit of truth. Examined 200 photos and found nothing but false leads? Examine 200 more photos, then. The key to amateur internet sleuthing is to sleuth promiscuously, rummage through massive quantities of data, neither get stuck on one thing nor give short thrift to anything. The future of journalism is internet sleuthing. Maybe that's why the hypocritically-incompetent media hates it so much. They see their livelihoods ceasing on the horizon, as media is decentralized. Maybe that's why government agencies hates it so much, because they see a future where perceptions can't be controlled from a central network, because they can't see a way to plant an asset at every computer device in the world.

LINDA CALLS IN TO DESCRIBE THE SCENE ON DEXTER ST IN WATERTOWN

Linda explains how the shootout transpired in Watertown during the early morning hours. She saw the first suspect mortally wounded and police beginning the manhunt for the second suspect.

That is true, our friend Christopher Rodia is a fine example.


But I did hear it myself and they clearly used that name in relation to suspect one and the media even ran with the story after LEO tipped them off and leaked those names to them, that is all a fact and is documented in any number of places.

I agree about with you about the media NOW AFTER THE FACT slamming Reddit and 4chan when the fact is THE MEDIA THEMSELVES took the stories being circulated ONLINE on those forums and then MADE THEM GO VIRAL by putting them on the MSM cable news stations and print media, the media is the one who gave credence to these stories, reddit just posted them on reddit, fox and cnn took them to the next level by using those stories as front page news!


THE MEDIA has a professional and ethical obligation to FACT CHECK before running stories, reddit and 4chan does not, we are not professionals, they are, that matters and makes a diffrence.

I'd be very interested in a link to any documentation of that (i.e, a LE confirmation of those names as suspects, or those names reported as leaked by LE outside of the scanner report from NewsBreakers, or etc.), as I have yet to locate any or a recording of the scanner in question.

Yesterday I could have given you any number of links to that story, at present I am buried in links about other crap but I will definitely see if I can find something credible to support this, I did hear it myself on the scanner but I realize that doesnt do you any good and it shouldnt, there should be more than just my word to support this.

I will do some work on this as I too would like to get to the bottom of how the name Mulgetta came to be, as for Sunlil I do believe that originated at 4chan but I am not certain. However, CNN did run with those two names all night long and again I saw that on the screen myself.


The problem I see right off the bat in looking at google is that it appears a lot of the media retracted immediately when the brothers took the stage and it appears a lot of the stories with the other two were disappeared thereafter.

If you go to the reddit minute by minute update page, they documented everything coming off the scanner also, its all documented there and perhaps they listed a source, I will check.


The question for everyone reading, how and when did the name Mulgetta originate and who is he?


Lets see what we can find.

[Hunter]

Just to add, didnt Drew post something upthread about what was said on the scanner, and that they spelled out Mulugetta, I guess the question then would be how certain are we that wasnt a local traffic stop, like Rodia and not connected to this case. What I heard was a clear BOLO for a Mulugetta and Tripatha in relation to suspects on the run and being pursued.

[lupercal]

^ For the record, Christopher Rodia is identified very clearly in the Sandy Hook police transmission as the registered owner of the black Honda driven by the shooter and to date there has been no credible evidence supplied to prove otherwise.

I was walking home from work about as far away from Boston as you can get and it occurred to me that the fact all this happened and I kept up with it has literally physically, emotionally, spiritually exhausted me. Not only here, but with others, I have been discussing this shit and I have tried to follow the media coverage as closely as possible. I realized how exhausted I was, because I can't think of the things I wanted to write and research before it all went down. It was as though I was (we all were) a host for an invasive species to infect us.

Not liking it.

And it is still ongoing and I will have to keep up some more, as will we all. Let us all remain rigorous and intuitive and spread love, first and foremost.

or more accurately, the opposite of that is true.
