I asked a reporter who was in the courtroom if he blew kisses to his fan club and he said he didn't see it and it was the first he's heard of it.

I eagerly anticipate an article nationally syndicated about these "clubs."

I think it was implied he was blowing kisses or whatever to his sisters, not his fan club (I doubt he's even aware of that bit, honestly).

Yeah, this is pretty textbook stuff.People are weird and becoming romantically fixated on unobtainable people is common. Lots of famous lifers have fans.

Is it possible for me to do some sort of Dzhokar cosplay, and bag me one of these crazies?

Why does it look like he's entering his plea with a sock puppet?

Man, either the artist sucks rear end or Dzhokar's face looks disfigured as gently caress from the night of his capture. The shape of his head resembles the aliens from that encounter movie, umm... I forget the name. The one where the spaceship appears after some piano concert with lights in some canyon behind a mountain.

Since his face is all disfigured, and he no longer looks like the kid from Kickass, will his fan club dissipate?

BOSTON (CBS) – A 22-year-old Boston man is facing charges after officials say he submitted a false claim to The One Fund Boston worth $2.195 million.

Attorney General Martha Coakley says Branden Mattier was arrested at his home in the South End on Tuesday when an undercover state trooper handed him a fake check for the full amount.

Mattier allegedly submitted the false claim on behalf of his aunt, Onevia Bradley, who has been dead for ten years. Mattier claimed his aunt had lost both of her legs in the Boston Marathon bombings.

The Attorney General’s office says Mattier sent in a claim form along with a letter from Boston Medical Center stating his aunt was a double amputee. The letter was dated May 2. Twenty-seven days later, Mattier reportedly sent an email to The One Fund asking if his aunt could make a claim as a double amputee if the amputation had not yet taken place.

The One Fund referred the claim to the Attorney General’s office.

“The file looked a little bit unusual to us and we forwarded it to the Attorney General’s office and they took it from there,” The One Fund Deputy Administrator Camille Biros said.

Mattier is charged with Attempted Larceny over $250 and Identity Theft.

“We allege that this defendant attempted to defraud The One Fund of more than $2 million,” Attorney General Martha Coakley said in a statement. “He sought to take these funds away from real victims of the Marathon attack and from the thousands of people who had so generously given to help those who truly need it.”

“For someone to even try and attempt to steal that from us, that’s just outrageous,” said Mery Daniel who lost a leg in the bombings.

Donate: Mery Daniel’s Fund

She says it’s more than a scam, but an insult to the city of Boston.

“Not only stealing from us but stealing from the good people, the generous people who paid this money and I would say that it is very hurtful,” said Daniel.

So far this is the only scam The One Fund has discovered.

I don't know if anyone has heard of this outside of Boston, but the One Boston Fund, the special charity set up to help victims of the bombing, has had it's first scam claim:


Only the first...

You know, when I look back on all the obnoxious lovely things I did as a kid, I cringe. A lot. But I'm thankful I kept a low profile. These girls are going to live the rest of their lives knowing not only did they cheerlead a terrorist/murderer, they also did it in front of millions of people, with video cameras rolling.

Yeah I believe he even married one of them shortly before his execution.

During the penalty phase of the trial, Bundy took advantage of an obscure Florida law providing that a marriage declaration in court, in the presence of a judge, constituted a legal marriage. As he was questioning former Washington State DES coworker Carole Ann Boone—who had moved to Florida to be near Bundy, had testified on his behalf during both trials, and was again testifying on his behalf as a character witness—he asked her to marry him. She accepted, and Bundy declared to the court that they were legally married
