Day 24: Defense Focuses On Tsarnaev's Brother, Sister-In-Law

The Finish Line podcast is hosted by WBUR’s David Boeri and The Boston Globe’s Kevin Cullen, who share their insights and analysis in the federal death penalty trial of admitted Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev sat expressionless and nearly motionless next to his attorneys, just as he has done every other day of this trial. But listening to his defense team, it seemed like he wasn't even in the room, let alone the person on trial. In Day 24, Boeri and Cullen discuss the second day of defense testimony in the penalty phase, which was all about Tamerlan — Dzhokhar's older, now dead brother — and his wife Katherine.
