| That didn't take long, did it? BOSTON -- Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was buried in a cemetery in Virginia with the help of a faith coalition, his uncle said Friday. The secret burial this week ended a frustrating search for a community willing to take the body, which had been kept at a funeral parlor in Worcester, Mass., as cemeteries in Massachusetts and several other states refused to accept the remains. The Tsarnaevs' uncle, Ruslan Tsarni of Maryland, took responsibility for arranging the burial after Tamerlan's wife, Katherine Russell

| #14 From this website: A statement from Islamic Funeral Services said Tsarnaev was buried in a donated plot at Al-Barzakh Cemetery in Doswell, Va. While reporters initially were allowed to approach the cemetery, a Caroline County sheriff's deputy ordered reporters off the property, explaining that it is private. A deputy's car blocked the gravel road, from which KingÂ’s DominionÂ’s rollercoasters can be seen. According to the Islamic Funeral Services statement, the interfaith group was organized by a resident of Richmond, Martha Mullen, who reached out to her United Methodist church, plus local Muslim, Jewish and Hindu communities Tuesday. "Jesus tells us, 'Love your enemies,'" Mullen -- a graduate of United Theological Seminary -- told her pastor, the statement said. "Not to hate them even after they are dead." Al-Barzakh Cemetery is the first all-Muslim cemetery in central Virginia, according to its website. Doswell is located about 30 minutes north of Richmond. Cemetery administrators coordinated the transfer of Tsarnaev's body with Worcester, Mass., funeral director Peter Stefan, the Worcester police and Tsarni. It's past time to give this topic a long rest. |

| #12 The Sheriff of CC was just on the news, Rambler, and it's obvious he's not happy. The reporter also went around the neighborhood and asked the residents about it - they were pissed off to say the least. Funny - I can't find an address for the cemetery (which is private). I know it must be available somewhere. Their website is "under construction." I still think they should have sent this worthless POS back to his own country (and the people in Caroline County agreed). If he wanted to act like a jihadi, he should be buried with the jihadis. We don't want that sorry scum. |

| #11 According to a Boston.com story, Caroline County officials are looking to see if any laws were broken in the burial. (Caroline County is where Speedbump got planted.) |

| #10 It would be an environmentally sound moment to add nitrogenous waste water to the topsoil? Who could argue with that? |

| #7 Barbara, I'm just about as close as you are. Maybe we should set up surveillance to see who shows up to honor Speedbump. |

| #4 Al-Barzakh Islamic Cemetery More than 12 Muslims are currently buried at Al Barzakh Cemetary. Does that mean Tamerlan Tsarnaev is number 13 ? |
