Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was moved from a civilian hospital to a federal medical detention facility early on Friday morning, according to news reports.
“The U.S. Marshals Service confirms that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been transported from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and is now confined at the Bureau of Prisons facility FMC Devens at Ft. Devens, Mass,” the agency said in a statement this morning, according to boston.com.
Tsarnaev, 19, has been charged with using a weapon of mass destruction against persons and property at the Boston Marathon on April 15, leading to the death of three people and injuries to more than 200 people.
Dzhokhar’s brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, also a suspect in the Boston bombings, was killed in a fierce gun battle with law enforcement one week ago.
