"Potential witness must be jailed until leaving US; Civil rights group wants to speak with her about FBI shooting inquiry" by Maria Sacchetti | Globe Staff, June 29, 2013
An immigration judge has ordered a potential witness in the investigation into the fatal shooting of a Chechen man by an FBI agent last month to leave the United States no later than July 1, and to remain in jail until she departs, raising an outcry from a civil rights group seeking a full accounting of the man’s death.
It's called shutting up a witness and quietly getting them out of the country.
Federal immigration officials arrested Tatiana Igorevna Gruzdeva, a 19-year-old aspiring foreign language teacher from Russia, on May 16 for overstaying her visa. They discovered the violation when the FBI and other law enforcement officials began investigating Ibragim Todashev, her roommate in Orlando, about his ties to the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.
Six days later, a Boston FBI agent shot and killed 27-year-old Todashev in their apartment.
He was murdered.
Officials with the Council on American-Islamic Relations in Florida, which is conducting its own review of the shooting, said they wanted to talk to Gruzdeva about the FBI’s actions in the days and weeks leading to Todashev’s death. Council leaders are concerned that federal officials are sweeping her out of the country before she could provide information to them and law enforcement officials.
It's pretty damn obvious, and this slow Saturday special confirms it for I have seen nothing else on this since.
“We’re extremely interested in speaking to her and seeing what she has to say,” said Hassan Shibly, executive director of the council in Florida. “We’re very curious as to why the government’s put so many impediments, in trying to get her out of the country as soon as possible. There’s a very good likelihood that she has important information.”
The FBI has refused to release details of the May 22 shooting of Todashev and media reports have provided conflicting accounts. Some said he attacked the agent with a blade during an interrogation, while others reported that he was unarmed or that he had lunged at the agent with a metal pole or a broomstick.
How can you possibly confuse one with the other? It just speaks to the bulls*** the government puts out all the time. This doesn't stick? Try that or this then.
Todashev, according to the media reports, was about to sign a confession implicating himself and his friend, suspected Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who is now dead, in the 2011 slayings of three men in Waltham.
If he was going to sign a confession, why would he attack them?

Long Jog in the Boston Globe
Oh, btw, Todashev had recently had knee surgery and limited mobility because of it. But just forget all that in the bullshit roll that is my Boston Globe.
According to family and friends, Todashev was a mixed-martial arts fighter who came to America in 2008 from Russia to study English. He lived in Allston and Cambridge before moving south.
Federal officials have also remained tight-lipped about Gruzdeva, who was born in the former Soviet republic of Moldova, according to federal records and social media sites that link her to Todashev. She is a citizen of Russia, according to federal officials.
Immigration court officials under the Department of Justice, the same agency that oversees the FBI, refused to disclose details about her case, citing their controversial privacy rules.
Btw, WHATEVER HAPPENED to those COLLEGE FRIENDS of Tsarnaev that allegedly disposed of a backpack and explosives in their dorm room?
Right down the OLD MSM MEMORY HOLE, 'eh?
After the Globe learned this month that a hearing was held on May 30 before a Miami immigration judge, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed that she would be jailed until she departs.
“Tatiana Gruzdeva was granted voluntary departure under safeguards by an immigration judge,” said Carissa Cutrell, spokeswoman for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Homeland Security agency that had arrested Gruzdeva. “As a result of that order, she will remain in ICE custody until her departure from the United States no later than July 1.”
Voluntary departure is a legal term that allows her to leave on her own, as opposed to being forcibly deported, but Gruzdeva must pay for her plane ticket home.
As of Friday, she was being held in the Broward Transitional Center, a privately run jail in Pompano Beach with capacity for up to 700 people, and will probably be escorted to the airport by authorities. Jailing detainees costs more than $100 per person a day, according to the US government.
She won't be talking to anybody.

Officials said Gruzdeva came to the United States last year on a J-1 exchange visa and stayed longer than she was permitted.
A good reason to ditch the immigration reform bill that is nothing more than a vehicle to put Americans out of work.
On Facebook she described herself as an art school graduate who was studying languages, including Hebrew, German, and English. She said she also worked as a model, and posted pictures of herself in a wedding dress.
The art student, the Hebrew, the visa.... looks like an American intelligence asset to me.
Initial reports from law enforcement officials said that Gruzdeva was from Moldova, but federal records show that is only her birthplace. Officials also said she was Todashev’s girlfriend, but his estranged wife said they were just friends.
Gruzdeva’s lawyer in Orlando, Maria Davydova, did not respond to requests for comment.
Jeffrey Rubin, a Boston immigration lawyer who is not involved in the case, said it is not unusual for immigration judges to order someone to remain in jail to ensure that they are deported.
“It actually happens very frequently,” he said.
Uh-huh.
The FBI declined to comment for this article and reaffirmed that FBI and Justice Department officials are investigating the shooting.
And the fox is investigating several missing chickens from the coop.
But the Council on American-Islamic Relations in Florida, Todashev’s family, and the ACLU have called for an independent investigation into his death.
In a letter to the Justice Department’s civil rights division on June 1, urging them to investigate as well, the council said Todashev had cooperated with the FBI, even postponing a trip home to Chechnya, a semiautonomous region in Russia, to meet with them.
The council said the FBI had interrogated Todashev at least three times at their offices in the five weeks after the Marathon bombings.
So they had to go over to his apartment at night?
In one encounter, the letter said, six law enforcement agents approached Todashev with guns drawn and pushed him to the ground. “In addition to the stream of interrogations, law enforcement agents also followed Mr. Todashev, and questioned his family and friends regarding his association with the suspects” in the bombing, according to the letter written by Thania Diaz Clevenger, the council’s civil rights director in Tampa.
The fourth and final interrogation started around 7:30 p.m. in his apartment on May 21 and stretched more than five hours into the next day, she said.
“Based on several of the reports, it seems unlikely that the agents were justified in using deadly force against a single unarmed suspect,” Clevenger wrote. “The circumstances surrounding the shooting are at the very least alarming.”
Yeah, turns out he was UNARMED!
Yup, the sword that turned into a knife that turned into a metal pole and then a broomstick (which is what they are shoving up our asses with this bullshit story) NEVER EXISTED!
The GOVERNMENT LIED and LIED and LIED and now wonders why we don't believe!
At the FBI’s request, the medical examiner’s office in Florida has not released details of the autopsy report pending the investigation. But the council said in its letter that it appeared Todashev had been shot at least seven times, including once in the head.
Translation: He was EXECUTED by the FBI which has a LONG HISTORY of SUCH THINGS! I'd tell you to ask Fred Hampton, but, well....

JULY 4 (akin to a Slow Saturday but even better on a Thursday!) UPDATE:
"Potential witness gets stay extended; Fla. roommate of Todashev’s was set to be deported" by Nicholas Jacques | Globe Correspondent, July 04, 2013
A potential witness in the May fatal shooting of Ibragim Todashev by an FBI agent in Florida has been granted permission to stay in the United States until the end of the month.
Translation: she is being held.
An immigration judge in Miami originally ordered Tatiana Igorevna Gruzdeva, a 19-year-old aspiring foreign language teacher and a Russian citizen who was arrested for overstaying her visa, to leave the country no later than July 1, but the removal office of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency granted her a 30-day extension, according to an ICE official.
The agency did not say why it granted the extension.
Gruzdeva will remain in jail until she leaves the country per the immigration judge’s order. Officials say she first came to the United States last year.
Translation: sign this statement implicating your former boyfriend or you are never getting out of here.
Gruzdeva’s ordered deportation had drawn concern from the Council on American-Islamic Relations in Florida, which is investigating Todashev’s death.
Todashev, 27, a Russian native living in Orlando when he was killed, was a friend of accused Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev and was interviewed several times about that relationship.
During his final voluntary interview, Todashev was shot multiple times and killed by an agent who said the man attacked him.
Details of what happened in the moments before the shooting remain shrouded in secrecy, with the FBI refusing to release any information, citing an ongoing investigation.
It's called a stonewalling cover-up. I'm sure they will absolve the agent at some innocuous moment in the future and will then close the case without answering questions.
Gruzdeva was Todashev’s roommate in Orlando.
Someone you would have talked to -- even with the spying equipment in the house.

Where is he now?
"Body of Ibragim Todashev is flown to Russia; Delta refused, won’t say why" by Wesley Lowery
| Globe Staff, June 18, 2013
Almost a month after he was shot and killed by a Boston FBI agent, Ibragim Todashev's body was loaded on a 5:40 p.m. flight to Russia on Tuesday, concluding his family’s nearly monthlong process of getting his body home.
Todashev's family has attempted to ship the body back to Russia since it was released by the Florida medical examiner the week after the shooting on May 22. However, according to family members and friends, the FBI has yet to release his green card and passport, both confiscated during their investigation, making it difficult to book a flight.
Todashev, 27, a Russian native living in Orlando when he was killed, was a friend of accused Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev and was interviewed several times about that relationship.
During his final voluntary interview, Todashev was shot multiple times and killed by an agent who said the man attacked him. Details of what happened in the moments before the shooting remain shrouded in secrecy, with the FBI refusing to release any information, citing an ongoing investigation.
It's called a cover-up.
Unnamed law enforcement officials have leaked various, conflicting versions of the altercation to various news organizations, including the Globe. Some allege that Todashev wielded a knife, sword, blade, or broomstick. Others have told reporters that he was unarmed....
The point being the GOVERNMENT and its MOUTHPIECE are NO LONGER to be BELIEVED!!!
Doesn't matter what you think, the LAST PLACE you will be finding the TRUTH is in the AmeriKan ma$$ media!
Hassan Shibly, CAIR’s spokesman, said, “There is an endless number of unanswered questions surrounding this shooting.”
And I doubt they will ever be answered.

Oh, and about that other dead guy:
"Tsarnaev security funds OK’d by state Senate; Worcester would receive $47,000" by John J. Monahan | Worcester Telegram & Gazette, June 29, 2013
The state Senate has allocated $47,000 in a spending bill to reimburse the city of Worcester for police costs associated with security at the Graham Putnam & Mahoney Funeral Parlors last month when the body of alleged Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was being kept there awaiting burial.
More tax money the false flag, staged and scripted crisis drill gone live will cost you, Americans.

"A federal grand jury released a sweeping indictment of Boston Marathon bombings suspect Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev Thursday, charging him with using weapons of mass destruction and killing four people. Officials also disclosed a note in which Tsarnaev said he wanted to punish the United States for the “evil” of hurting Muslims. The 30-count indictment alleges that Tsarnaev had been inspired by Al Qaeda publications and that he left a confession in the boat in a Watertown backyard, where he was captured days after the bombings, saying, “I don’t like killing innocent people.”"

And the AmeriKan media has been tarred with shit for pushing this garbage.
Senator Michael O. Moore, a Millbury Democrat, filed the amendment to a $127 million supplemental spending bill to provide reimbursement for five days of police details.
They always find money for tyranny, ever notice that?
The bill also would allocate $200,000 to provide home modifications and moving expenses for victims of the Marathon bombings who have either lost a limb or the use of a limb as a result. Other funding in the bill would ensure that the family of slain Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer Sean Collier is eligible for line-of-duty benefits.
I think it is sick for us to pay to promote agenda-pushing myths.
Worcester police dealt with protesters, some of whom stood vigil and held signs outside the Main Street funeral home over several days, while public officials and Tsarnaev’s relatives searched for a burial site.
Worcester Police Chief Gary J. Gemme said at the time that police details at the site were averaging $10,000 per day. The body was ultimately transported to a site in Doswell, Va.
The supplemental spending bill also provides money to cover the costs of recent elections, additional jail expenses, and snow removal.
House and Senate negotiators must still agree on a final bill.

Couldn't they get the money someplace else?
"The total — which far exceeded the expectations of the fund’s administrators — will allow them to write larger checks on average than the aid provided to relatives of those killed in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001."
Another false flag, and more than that. The defining event for decades to come.

"Just days after the One Fund distributed nearly $61 million to victims of the Boston Marathon bombings, the Massachusetts Bar Association called on Attorney General Martha Coakley to intervene, raising “serious concerns” on Wednesday about the way the charitable donations were divided. Those victims include a 43-year-old family-practice doctor who said he has shuttered his Alabama practice because blast-related hearing loss means he can no longer hear patients or their heartbeats, and a 39-year-old international development consultant from Jamaica Plain who said her brain injury — possibly permanent — has left her unable to do simple arithmetic."
How dare you question Ken Feinberg?
And wasn't that guy from Alabama the one who blew the whistle on the loudpseaker announcement from authorities to not be alarmed because drills were being conducted? I know that is all down the AmeriKan media memory hole, but....
