These are the moments after the Boston Marathon bombing, a gory chaos. Prosecutors say it was all part of Dzhokhar Tsarnaevs plan to punish america, reminding jurors in their Closing Argument of dzhokhars path of terror down boylston street coordinating with his older brother tamerlan over a cell phone, never walking away from the plan even after seeing a family nearby. Instead, planting his bomb, accomplishing his mission, prosecutors saying these children werent innocent to him. They were american. The jury also seeing this photo, dzhokhar in front of an islamist flag. Prosecutors playing the socalled jihadi music the brothers listened to. Prosecutors saying they felt they were soldiers. The defense calling the bombings a senseless act but showing the court again fingerprints, receipts and Computer Forensics pointing to one bombmaker. One architect of terror, dzhokhars older brother, tamerlan. The defense saying dzhokhar was a teenager, a follower, even a flunky but not a terrorist. Massachusetts former attorney general even giving dzhokhars defense lawyer judy clarke credit for that strategy. She almost acted as a prosecutor against the older brother, in other words, making the older brother the main actor and she made this point but for the older brother, this younger brother would not have been pulled into this enterprise and this never would have happened. Reporter now, the jury is made up of seven women and five men including a nurse and a student, we know theyll be deliberating for awhile, robin. Because we saw that thick packet you were showing us that they will be receiving this morning so theres really no way of telling how long they will be deliberating, right, tom. Reporter legal analysts tell us if they go through the packet and analyze the charges, and they are complicated, it could take at least a few days, we do know that all the jurors have said in one way or another they are open to the death penalty. Robin. Thank you, tom. Well move on to politics now and the next official candidate for president , kentucky senator rand paul will launch his campaign in louisville pitching himself as a different kind of republican. Abcs jon karl covering the kickoff. Paul is trying to set himself apart from the pack on substance and style. Reporter he sure is. He is a different kind of republican. He is a republican who has supported the president on his efforts to strike a nuclear deal with iran. He is also somebody who has proposed easing antidrug laws. He has suggested that the war on terror has gone too far and pushed for privacy protections. He has in the past anyway proposed big cuts to defense spending and on style, this is the most tech savvy of any of the candidates in either party. Hes somebody who loves to use twitter, even snapchat. He will be holding a facebook town hall meeting after his announcement today and, george, that will also be something you can see on periscope. Okay. If you have periscope. Also in polling he starts out in the middle of the pack overall but with real pockets of strength in iowa and new hampshire, the key states. Reporter thats right. If you look nationally at the polls down near the back but much stronger in iowa and new hampshire, places he has spent a long time and places that his father who ran for president several times did quite well in 2012, if you remember, ron paul, the father came in third, a very close third in iowa. Second in new hampshire. Hes hoping to get some of those supporters. One thing to note, his father will not be seen much on the campaign trail. Will be at the announcement but giving no interviews, something very unusual for ron paul. Yeah, the son does not want to be tied to all of the views of the father. Okay, jon karl, thanks very much. Time to move on to amy with the other top story including this violent case of road rage in texas. Thats right.
