Their parents and spouse received the benefits, not the brothers. They were minors at the time so you can stop the goofiness about giving benefits to bombers.
Official: Tsarnaev Brothers Did Not Directly Receive State Welfare Benefits
April 26, 2013 12:32 PM
BOSTON (AP) — The Massachusetts welfare agency has released new details about state benefits received by the family of the Boston Marathon suspects.
The interim commissioner of the state Department of Transitional Assistance, Stacey Monahan, wrote in a letter to a lawmaker that neither Tamerlan nor Dzokhar Tsarnaev directly received state welfare benefits at any time.
The brothers did, however, receive benefits in the past through their parents, and Tamerlan also received benefits from September 2011 to November 2012 through his wife, Katherine Russell.
