FBI Releases Boston Bombing Suspect Images/Videos
An anonymous reader writes "The FBI has released images of what they say are two suspects with backpacks and ball caps. 'Somebody out there knows these individuals as friends, neighbors, co-workers or family members of the suspects,' Special Agent Rick DesLauriers, the head of the FBI's Boston office said. 'And though it may be difficult, the nation is counting on those with information to come forward and provide it to us.'"

Any chance of running these through Facebook's face recognition? That stuff is frighteningly accurate
All the money in "defense spending" both internal and international and we're crowdsourcing their jobs?
Dead men walking.
There are cheap cameras today that do full HD, low artifacts, and run 30 frames a second. These images were from old equipment and software. The smudged faces is that. They should be replaced. All replaced. The city I live has less than one FPS on its non-traffic cameras. It's pathetic what salesman push on the HLS-cash-infused cities when cheaper, and much better, hardware and software is available right now. You get what you pay for, and sometimes, not even that.
Stuff that matters. *sarcasm*
The only 2 men with a black backpack that 4chan and reddit didn't accuse.
Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
There's a fine line between soliciting public support and encouraging vigilante justice.
... now might not be a bad choice.
Though, if there ever was a time that we needed the detective
- Nec Impar Pluribus, or so I'm told.
We need that magical "enhance" and "ZOOM!" functions!
This is seriously the best resolution they can pull off those camera's?
I looked at the pictures and I think it would be pretty hard to identify anyone based on what I see there. I would assume the FBI has access to image enhancement technologies such as superresolution (e.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superresolution) - but it sure does not look like it based on these pictures. Does anyone have any idea about how much image enhancement was done on these pictures? Could superresolution techniques be used here to further enhance the images?
"False Flag" .. it's undemocratic.
I'm surprised they couldn't clean up the images more. Clearly you can't do much with a single image since there's only so much information, but with a video you're getting a slightly different set of information with each frame, I always figured you could do a mapping/averaging of all the different shots and extract something a little cleaner. Unfortunately it looks like that's not the case (or at least it doesn't work well here).
I stole this Sig
The guy in the white cap looks either South Indian or Arabic.
The second guy looks Asian, probably Indonesian.
I hope they're the ones that did it, because whether they are or not, in the eyes of a public starving for villains to blame they're now as good as guilty.
I'm still trying to figure out if the black-cap guy identified by the FBI is the same guy as the apparently Craft International (Blackwater-like mercenary) guy identified by storyleak.com, and if so, why the FBI hasn't released a clearer image of the cap logo?

No need for that. The police just has to call the crime lab at CSI Miami or Chloe down at the CTU. If all the moles have been properly smoked out from those organizations it should be possible to get 3D pictures of both suspects.
lucm, indeed.
"Enhance."
There were at least 4 Craft guys. They had radiation detectors on site and were caught on camera using them after the explosion. They were private contractors, not official government agents. All 4 Craft guys are well known to the FBI and were acting on behalf of the organizers of the event. This is something they do frequently.
Frames are not similar enough to do averaging in a 1 fps "video".
You could identify anyone with those pics. Put a basecap on a dog and it should work if his muzzle ain't too long.
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
They just aren't yelling "ENHANCE" loud enough yet. Give it time...

These look like local business security cams -- who is going to pay the businesses to replace the cameras and DVR's every year to keep up with the latest and greatest technology? Or do you think the government should blanket every public space with hi-def facial recognition cameras covering every inch of every public space so they are prepared for the next time this happens?
Don't forget to factor in the storage needs - my "action cam" generates 8GB of data/hour for 1080p 30fps -- if a small municipality has 200 cameras, that's over 1 Petabyte of data/month. Video compression can help, but only to a point since you don't want to lose any of that high resolution that your expensive camera is providing. And at around 20mbit/sec of data per camera, that's 4 gbit/sec of network bandwidth. And of course, someone has to monitor and repair those cameras - every time someone paints over the lens or otherwise damages the camera, someone's got to go out and fix it. There's no telling whether spraypaint over the lens is random graffiti or a precursor to an attack.
It's certainly a solvable problem - casinos are reported to have hundreds or thousands of cameras throughout the facility, but implementing such a system is not cheap, good thing casinos have people handing over bucketloads of cash to pay for it.
They know the resolution stinks. What they are hoping for is that people will go through their personal photos that they took which are much better resolution and notice that one of them may be in the background.
Not sure if it helps with the case but I noticed these two are going for a "yin yang" theme. One has a white hat, the other has a black. One wears it backwards the other forwards. One is wearing tan, the other black pants. The black hat has white on it which must represent the white dot in the black yang, and the man with the white hat has a black emblem on the white yin. Yin-yang implies they are complementary, not opposing forces. And, it shows that they probably believe that they had to commit this atrocity to transform society. A shadow cannot exist without light. There was probably some meaning in the fact that they placed two bombs that were built differently as well. You might want to ask school teachers / students / parents about anyone who had a predilection for yin-yang and opposing concepts, maybe they liked drawing the symbols in notebooks. Also, this pattern is bound to show up frequently as more details about the case come out. I'm willing to bet there's a lot of duality and philosophy being applied here.
If the FBI can identify these guys why can't they identify the clown who is stalking me and constantly abusing Slashdot? I contacted them but they were no help.
A corrupt slashdot luser has pentrated the moderation system to downmod all my posts while impersonating me.
Nearly 230++ times that I know of @ this point for all of March/April 2013 so far, & others here have told you to stop - take the hint, lunatic (leave slashdot)...
Sorry folks - but whoever the nutjob is that's attempting to impersonate me, & upset the rest of you as well, has SERIOUS mental issues, no questions asked! I must've gotten the better of him + seriously "gotten his goat" in doing so in a technical debate & his "geek angst" @ losing to me has him doing the:
---
A.) $10,000 challenges, ala (where the imposter actually TRACKED + LISTED the # of times he's done this no less, & where I get the 230 or so times I noted above) -> http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3585795&cid=43285307
&/or
B.) Reposting OLD + possibly altered models - (this I haven't checked on as to altering the veracity of the info. being changed) of posts of mine from the past here
---
(Albeit massively repeatedly thru all threads on /. this March/April 2013 nearly in its entirety thusfar).
* Personally, I'm surprised the moderation staff here hasn't just "blocked out" his network range yet honestly!
(They know it's NOT the same as my own as well, especially after THIS post of mine, which they CAN see the IP range I am coming out of to compare with the ac spamming troll doing the above...).
APK
P.S.=> Again/Stressing it: NO guys - it is NOT me doing it, as I wouldn't waste that much time on such trivial b.s. like a kid might...
Plus, I only post where hosts file usage is on topic or appropriate for a solution & certainly NOT IN EVERY POST ON SLASHDOT (like the nutcase trying to "impersonate me" is doing for nearly all of March/April now, & 230++ times that I know of @ least)... apk
P.S.=> here is CORRECT host file information just to piss off the insane lunatic troll:
--
21++ ADVANTAGES OF CUSTOM HOSTS FILES (how/what/when/where/why):
Over AdBlock & DNS Servers ALONE 4 Security, Speed, Reliability, & Anonymity (to an extent vs. DNSBL's + DNS request logs).
1.) HOSTS files are useable for all these purposes because they are present on all Operating Systems that have a BSD based IP stack (even ANDROID) and do adblocking for ANY webbrowser, email program, etc. (any webbound program). A truly "multi-platform" UNIVERSAL solution for added speed, security, reliability, & even anonymity to an extent (vs. DNS request logs + DNSBL's you feel are unjust hosts get you past/around).
2.) Adblock blocks ads? Well, not anymore & certainly not as well by default, apparently, lol - see below:
Adblock Plus To Offer 'Acceptable Ads' Option
http://news.slashdot.org/story/11/12/12/2213233/adblock-plus-to-offer-acceptable-ads-option )
AND, in only browsers & their subprogram families (ala email like Thunderbird for FireFox/Mozilla products (use same gecko & xulrunner engines)), but not all, or, all independent email clients, like Outlook, Outlook Express, OR Window "LIVE" mail (for example(s)) - there's many more like EUDORA & others I've used over time that AdBlock just DOES NOT COVER... period.
Disclaimer: Opera now also has an AdBlock addon (now that Opera has addons above widgets), but I am not certain the same people make it as they do for FF or Chrome etc..
3.) Adblock doesn't protect email programs external to FF (non-mozilla/gecko engine based) family based wares, So AdBlock
Where are the pictures of them dropping and leaving the backpacks in the exact spots the explosions took place? You could pick out dozens of people in the crowd walking around with backpacks. There's nothing conclusive here.
There are cheap cameras today that do full HD, low artifacts, and run 30 frames a second. These images were from old equipment and software. The smudged faces is that. They should be replaced.

It's pathetic what salesman push on the HLS-cash-infused cities when cheaper, and much better, hardware and software is available right now. You get what you pay for, and sometimes, not even that.
There are also completely fake security cameras. They're just deterrents and if shitty (or fake) security cameras have a clear crime reducing effect, it's harder to justify the cost of replacing them. Now that good pictures are actually needed many people will react like you do but as soon as these guys are caught, any spending on security cameras will again simply be a matter of reducing crime and whether the reason cameras do so by acting as a deterrent or as an actual aid in catching criminals will be fairly irrelevant.
As usual, with the camera being slightly above the target, the angle of these security cameras are fairly bad if the perp is wearing a hat. Seeing as cameras are now tiny, it's time to start mounting them at about the 5 foot level. It's so much easier to identify a person at that angle. This would explain why they're looking for somebody with a cell phone picture.
White hat superficially resembles Aaron Swartz. Not saying it's intentional, but there is a resemblance.
I wonder if the FBI read Slashdot? I bear a moderate similarity (in profile) to the man in the white cap. Same hair, same nose, etc. However, I have a water-tight alibi - I was 16,000km away and in bed at the time.
To my very untrained eye it also seems like there are a couple other tailing people (red cap and yellow jacket). How two are suspects and the other two are not... Maybe the two suspect backpacks were found to be the blast sources?
Occupy Wall Street showed that when the US Gov't wants a protest movement to go away, it does. So who really cares if we're being watched? What difference does it make from a practical standpoint. Plus, if we can catch these sort of things it's one less excuse for pointless wars against anybody with a turban and brown skin, and one less excuse for Patriot Acts.
All you're really giving up anyway is the illusion of freedom you don't have. Real freedom is economic freedom, and OWS showed us who's really in control.

I'm not saying that every Muslim is bad, but the fact is, most of those bombings are connected with Islam ...
I think it's time we do something about it
If the world can't keep Islam and all the Islamic violence out, at least USA can try

This is ridiculous. Are we seriously saying that the suspect description for a bombing at a marathon is anyone who had a backpack?
It's OK Bender, there's no such thing as 2.
According to a retired deputy in Florida the bag that has been shown at the railing was his, and was gone before the explosion.
That old guy in the blue top in the foreground looks way too happy. I reckon it was him.
It's OK Bender, there's no such thing as 2.
There was a rumor of a Saudi student being arrested .. ... and then the authority came out and said that Saudi student wasn't the suspect
Okay, I accept that
But the following action from the government of the United States have been very suspicious
They want to deport that Saudi student !!
Why ?
If that Saudi student is innocent, and if he is still studying, why deport that guy ?
Or is there something that the authority does NOT want us to know ???

I'm surprised that the doubting Thomases are getting so many mod points around here today. There is no better facial recognition system in the world than the human brain. The pictures are worthlessly low-res and indiscriminate? Someone who knows these individuals will correlate the physical details of the face, the expression, the height, haircut, posture, and clothing instantly and unconsciously. They will be recognized. Those acquaintances can see the forest. All we are getting is trees.
And to cover the other criticism of why these two were chosen... Both were seen walking together with black backpacks. Then each one was seen individually right at one of the two bomb sites. In the case of suspect #2, there is video of him putting his backpack down and then walking away from it. Personally I agree that this is sufficient to refer to both individuals as "suspects."
Can they be seen in the videos/photos of the live fire exercises that occurred in downtown miami earlier this year? http://miami.cbslocal.com/2013/01/25/blackhawks-used-in-military-training-exercise-in-miami/ is the only non-wacko-paranoid news site I can find that mentions it, though I remember more sites inculding the miami newspaper mentioning it when it happened. That CBS link also mentions
The training is designed to ensure that military personnel are able to operate in urban areas and to focus on preparations for overseas deployment. It also serves as a mandatory training certification requirement.
A similar operation took place in April 2011 in Miami's Brickell area, which frightened many residents in the area.
This time, the training operations were held away from residential areas.

The 'bombings' at the Boston Marathon and the racine laced letters are an operation directed by the White House, with Department of Homeland Security units and Department of Justice units. Both Secretaries of DHS and DoJ were involved with the planning, execution and the disinformation campaign at direction from President Barak Hussein Obama.
The purpose of the 'bombings' and racine letters is two fold.
1. Provide 'encouragement' to Congress to pass bills aimed at a) authorization of weapon restricted ownership by civilians and b) ban on assault weapons ownership by civilians.
This part of the operation failed.
2. In the near-future, i.e. 12 months, the United States of America under authority granted by Secret Executive Order Sign by President Barak Hussein Obama will begin deployment of 'improved' versions of the Predator and Raptor drones within USA air space. A new DARPA-engineered version called 'KILLER' will be the central platform for the White House's plans to 1) de-sensetize citizens to 'power projection' drones and the after affects of their usage on civilian targets in urban environments, and 2) declaration of dictatorship, including the sequestration of all non-Federal employed citizen monetary instruments and securities to be controlled by a bank fund administered through the White House into a foreign country.
If anyone wants to know the identities of the 'persons of interest' in the DoJ's videos, they can be found in the personnel database of the DoJ.

That fellow (Jeff Bauman) who lost both legs below the knee, the one whose femoral artery is being pinched shut by Carlos Arredondo as he's being wheeled away from the incident, identified his attacker. From Bloomberg:
"Minutes before the bombs blew up in Boston, Jeff Bauman looked into the eyes of the man who tried to kill him.
Just before 3 p.m. on April 15, Bauman was waiting among the crowd for his girlfriend to cross the finish line at the Boston Marathon. A man wearing a cap, sunglasses and a black jacket over a hooded sweatshirt looked at Jeff, 27, and dropped a bag at his feet, his brother, Chris Bauman, said in an interview.
Two and a half minutes later, the bag exploded, tearing Jeff’s legs apart. A picture of him in a wheelchair, bloodied and ashen, was broadcast around the world as he was rushed to Boston Medical Center. He lost both legs below the knee."

Low resolution cameras are so yesterday. We use 10Mpixel high definition security cameras at our security gates that can easily identify a person with high accuracy, and they are inexpensive. All existing security cameras across the country, and especially in cities with highly popular mass activities, need to be upgraded from NEARLY USELESS to highly discerning high definition. I feel so sad at all the ancient-technology video security footage you see after every crime, when current cameras at often lower cost, are AMAZING. Please, everyone with a security camera, for the sake of innocent victims, please upgrade your security cameras to high definition. Ok, so you may need to upgrade your security camera servers too. Again, for the sake of the victims, please put it in your budget now !!

Your HOSTS file claimed to have created a single DNS resolver. I offer absolute proof that I have created 4 simultaneous DNS servers within a single rotation of .org TLD. You worship "Bill Gates", equating you to a "singularity bastard". Why do you worship a queer -1 Troll? Are you content as a singularity troll?
Evil HOSTS file Believers refuse to acknowledge 4 corner DNS resolving simultaneously around 4 quadrant created Internet - in only 1 root server, voiding the HOSTS file. You worship Microsoft impostor guised by educators as 1 god.

First off, and as far as I know to this hour, there is no link between any middle east groups, and the bombing.
Second there are about 20 groups that call themselves Americans, that would do this, most of them right (far right) winger groups.
I get that is what you are saying.. But on here you need to be clear in how you say it, like the two sentences above. Christians would be the first to use terrorism to take over anything they feared, and to hate what they couldn't explain. That is what cracks me about Christians that complain about Muslim beliefs, and the stereo type that every person who is Muslim has an axe to grind with any and every country.
As dumb and completely irrelevant as this may seem, one could argue that because Christians couldn't convert Muslims, and now Muslim Religion is close to over taking Christian beliefs they want to prevent that from happening. Who may "they" be? Who wouldn't "they" be!! They tried to create an atmosphere in the US and around the world, and still do, over those who are atheists. However in all fairness atheists are not really tabooed anymore in the US...
I would go one step further and say even if you get rid of religion, you have patriotism, which is just as dangerous. And that gets us back to where I started, the right wing groups have there own interpretation of what a country should be and the links they will go to, in order to keep things the way they want them.
Both suspects wear baseball caps. They are baseball fans. Suspect and round up all the baseball players and fans you know. Clearly it is a conspiracy by baseball fans against the rest of us!
Yes, i remember couple news where they have done that video enchancement thing, and to me it looked pretty good. Though could be that they looked away a lot of the time the in the video, and that's pretty much the only good picture there is, or that the software just isn't that good after all.
They aren't stupid, they understand that terrorism works. E.g. in Israel we had a peace process that was going relatively well between the left wing and the PLO. So the Hamas started blowing up buses and the peace process died. Hamas which was marginalized before used that collapse (and rise of Israeli right wing that resulted) to take over Gaza strip after the fact.
So terrorists can come from a very weak position and manipulate public opinion very effectively. E.g. before 911 no one cared much about Bin Laden, now the "arab spring" is turning into religious governments who shape more after Iran than after the USA... As engineers they are remarkably effective at manipulating us (or really the dumber element of our society)

"I work on a security commission and I’ve just received word to start on a campaign we’ve been working on for the last two months and now it all makes sense.
I’ll keep it as short can I can
They’re going to pin this event on a male late teens to early 20s and say he did it because he’s unstable.
They are going to find firearms and a NRA book in his home. They are going to to say he used reloading powder for the explosion and that reloading powder shouldn’t be for sale to the public. They are then going to say that because the powder in ammunition can be used for explosions that the number of rounds you can buy should be limited and taxed to help pay for these events.
I can’t do anything or I’ll lose my job and possibly face criminals charges. Please don’t let them get away with it. They won’t find the suspect till later this week and the raid is issued to occur on Friday. This was a staged event. The people hurt are real but the event was planned. Don’t let them hurt our rights."

I suppose it's "difference" because those evil [insert religion/race] use bombs instead of going on shooting rampages?
The only difference I see between a shooting spree and a bomb is that shooters seem to get ID'ed and caught/shot a bit sooner than bombers.

"I was not involved in the September 11 attacks in the United States nor did I have knowledge of the attacks. There exists a government within a government within the United States. The United States should try to trace the perpetrators of these attacks within itself; to the people who want to make the present century a century of conflict between Islam and Christianity. That secret government must be asked as to who carried out the attacks....The American system is totally in control of the Jews, whose first priority is Israel, not the United States.
