With a bagpiper playing 'The Bells of Dunblane' and a few runners looking on, families of those killed in the Boston Marathon bombing marked the 10th anniversary of the tragedy early Saturday by slowly walking together to the memorial sites near the finish line and laying wreaths.
Participants of a gathering for victims of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing process between memorials on Boylston Street, Saturday April 15, 2023, in Boston. With a bagpiper playing "The Bells of Dunblane" and a few runners looking on, families of those killed in the Boston Marathon bombing marked the 10th anniversary of the tragedy early Saturday by slowly walking together to the memorial sites near the finish line and laying wreaths.
"So much loss, so much pain all because of hate," she continued, tears streaming down her face. "We have to stand up for people. We have to look out for each other, and we have to pray for these families every day." Three people were killed and more than 260 were injured when two pressure-cooker bombs went off at the marathon finish line. Among the dead were Lu Lingzi, a 23-year-old Boston University graduate student from China; Krystle Campbell, a 29-year-old restaurant manager from Medford, Massachusetts; and 8-year-old Martin Richard, who had gone to watch the marathon with his family.
"I think we're all still living with those tragic days 10 years ago," Bill Evans, the former Boston Police Commissioner, said recently. The appeals court initially threw out Tsarnaev's death sentence in 2020, saying the trial judge did not adequately screen jurors for potential biases. But the U.S. Supreme Court revived it last year.
"It really galvanized and showed our sport's and our city's resiliency, our desire together to continue even better and to enhance the Boston Marathon," Boston Athletic Association President and CEO Jack Fleming said. "The bombing in 2013 resulted in a new appreciation or a different appreciation for what Boston, what the Boston Marathon, has always stood for, which is that expression of freedom that you receive and get while running.
