Boston Marathon
From victims to well-wishers, social media users are reacting to news of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's guilty verdicts for the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings.
A Boston jury unanimously found Dzhokhar Tsarnaev guilty of the 2013 bombing and will reconvene next week to decide on sentencing.
Nearly a month after twin explosions at the Boston Marathon killed three and wounded nearly 200, it appears that a new amendment inspired by the bombings could be a part of the proposed immigration reform bill in Washington.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., has gone all in on the bill that would reform the nation's immigration laws, defending the bill this week against both reports from Politico suggesting the bill would benefit Democrats and a push from legislators to delay the bill due to two suspects in the Boston Marathon bombings being immigrants.
In the backdrop of the aftermath of the arrest of one of two immigrants suspected of the Boston Marathon bombings, the first Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the proposed immigration reform bill Monday was filled with arguments from both sides on whether the bill should be passed at this time.
The past week of mayhem in Massachusetts thanks to two immigrant suspects accused of the Boston Marathon bombings has added fuel to the fire of the debate for immigration reform just as the bipartisan Senate panel's compromise bill has reached Congress for debate.
Amidst tragedy shines a beacon of light.
