Katherine Russell, the wife of Boston
bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev,
released a statement through her lawyer Amato DeLuca today, addressing the
tragedy and the effects of the past week’s events.
Public
Statement on Behalf of Katherine Russell:
Our firm is representing Katherine Russell and she has asked us to
make a short statement. As you know from news reports, Katie married her
husband in June of 2010. Since then, she has been living in Cambridge, raising
her child and working long hours, caring for people in their homes who are
unable to care for themselves. Katie grew up in Rhode Island and has always
remained close to her parents and sisters here, as well as her extended family.
She is fortunate to have the support of her loving family now, as they, too,
struggle to come to terms with these events and the deep sorrow we all feel
following the events of last week. Meanwhile, she is doing everything she can
to assist with the investigation.
The injuries and loss of life — to people who came to celebrate a
race and a holiday — has caused profound distress and sorrow to Katie and her
family. The reports of involvement by her husband and brother-in-law came as an
absolute shock to them all. As a mother, a sister, a daughter, a wife, Katie
deeply mourns the pain and loss to innocent victims — students, law
enforcement, families and our community. In the aftermath of this tragedy, she,
her daughter and her family are trying to come to terms with these events.
Thank you.
