The surviving brother involved in the Boston Marathon bombings plead not guilty seven times in a Boston courtroom...
The proceeding in the courtroom lasted seven minutes- so that averages a plea a minute...
Dzokhar Tsarnaev has been hospitalized since the capture after the April 15th bombing of the Boston Marathon. He faces 30 federal charges, including using a weapon of mass destruction to kill, which killed three and injured more than 260.
He could get the death penalty if prosecutors choose to chase the idea.
Tsarnaev's older brother, Tamerlan, died following a gun battle with police three days after the attack. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested on April 19th and is also charged in the killing of an MIT police officer and the carjacking of a motorist during his getaway attempt.
Here's the NECN coverage of the developments as they came out of the courtroom...
Martin Richard, Krystle Marie Campbell, and Lingzi Lu were killed by the two bombs. They were made out of pressure cookers, gunpowder, nails and other bits and pieces that could easily turn into shrapnel once the bombs were triggered as they were carried in ordinary backpacks.
