Watertown
The Court described an allegation that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev withdrew $800 from Dun Meng's account at a Watertown ATM on April 18, 2013. In closing arguments, the prosecution portrayed the brothers' confrontation with police as joint action, while the defense acknowledged Dzhokhar's bomb throwing but argued that Tamerlan led the events and held the Ruger handgun. Witnesses described processing the Laurel Street crime scene and examining explosive devices, vehicle evidence and digital devices recovered in Watertown.
About
Watertown was a setting for the charged robbery and use of weapons of mass destruction, and evidence recovered there informed the parties' competing arguments about Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's participation and relative role.
