The personal information of the main suspects of the deadly Boston Marathon Bombings have been released by the authorities and so far we know that Tsarnaev bothers, one 19 years old and another 26 were neutralized US citizens and have their roots in the war torn Russian region of Chechnya.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, loved to box. And he was talented. At 196 pounds, he represented New England as a heavyweight in the National Golden Gloves boxing tournament. He wanted to make it on an Olympic team.
His younger brother, Dzhokar, 19, graduated in 2011 from Cambridge Rindge & Latin School, the alma mater of actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. The city awarded Dzhokar a $2,500 scholarship. And he, too, was an athlete -- a wrestler. He was named student athlete of the month and made the state playoffs.
