Sister of Boston Marathon bombing suspects pleads not guilty to marijuana charge (NJ)

[slimvictor]

A sister of the two Boston Marathon bombing suspects is facing a drug charge in New Jersey.

Bella Tsarnaeva pleaded not guilty Tuesday to possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.

Attorney Mario Blanch says Tsarnaeva was arrested in December when police responded to a domestic violence report at her Fairview, N.J., apartment.

Her boyfriend, Ahmad Khalil, faces the same charge and also pleaded not guilty.

Tsarnaeva has applied to a program that would enable her to avoid a criminal record.

why are stories like this news? people get charged with marijuana posession all the time.

i guess papers have to print *something*. and the chance to have "bombing suspects" and "marijuana charge" in a headline together was too good to pass up.
