Update: Manhunt Ends April 19 as Second Suspect is Arrested, First Suspect Killed (Read More)

Tamerlan Tsarnev, the older suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings who was killed by police earlier, had a wife and a three-year-old daughter.

Tamerlan, who had dreamed of becoming a boxer, had recently become radicalized, turning to Jihad, according to videos posted on his Youtube account.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev Asked Uncle Alvi For Forgiveness Two Hours Prior To Death Amid Newly Surfacing Info, Hunt Continues for Dzhokhar

His brother Dzhokhar is still on the run and a large manhunt is underway to capture the extremely dangerous and armed suspect.

Tamerlan's Youtube page shows a playlist titled 'Terrorists' dedicated to terrorism. Those videos are not available from the video sharing site anymore. One song was called, ''I will dedicate my life to Jihad.'

According to his aunt Maret Tsarneva, who believes that her nephews have been set up as the bombing suspects, Tamerlan had only recently started to pray 5 times a day. "Maybe 2 years ago he started praying 5 times a day. I don't see anything bad in it. 5 times. You set up the time, you say gratitude words to creator - I would rather him pray than smoking, doing drugs and doing some other unlawful stuff."

Maret also mentioned that his wife was a devout Christian but according to reports, she could have converted to Islam.
In a press conference, Maret requested that additional proof be given that show her nephews behind the heinous acts. She spoke to the media from her Toronto residence.

"I am a lawyer and there are four of us in the family. I can't lightly accept this kind of accusations without supporting evidence. Forgive me, but I cannot. Could it be staged? I have to question everything. That's my nature," she said.
Police are currently on a manhunt for 19-year-old suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who survived an overnight shootout and police chase while his older brother Tamerlan, 26, was killed.

The aunt stated that she hasn't spoken to her nephews in roughly five years.

She explained her initial reaction upon hearing they were suspects.

"I called FBI line first - that's the number i called. Knowing these two boys, believing strongly that they woudln't do this - thats why i called. But I called not right away. First reaction was anger. How could this happen, how could they do this? for the sake of what? what beliefs? what prompted them to this? this reaction. But I went through the material. My first call to FBI - I said they could not have done this where is evidence? I'm suspicious that this was staged. The picture was staged. Whoever is looking for those who need to be blamed. "
