He'll be read his Miranda rights. I think the Public Safety clause expires 48 hours after the start of any questioning. It's Lil' Linseed Grahamstander who wants the enemy combatant military tribunal process.
+1 "But more importantly, we remain vigilant in times of peace and guard against the apathy that leads to atrocity. We remain vigilant in loving each other and lifting each other up and empowering one another to see love and seek help and find peace. Every day. So that we don't have to ask "what is this world coming to?"

BOSTON — Federal public defenders have agreed to represent the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings.
Miriam Conrad, the federal defender for Massachusetts, says her office expects to represent Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-KHAR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) after he is charged.
Tsarnaev remained hospitalized Saturday after being wounded in a firefight with police Friday. His brother was killed.
Conrad says she believes Dzhokhar should have a lawyer appointed as soon as possible because there are "serious issues regarding possible interrogation."
U.S. officials said a special interrogation team for high-value suspects would question him without reading him his Miranda rights, under a public safety exception that exists to protect police and the public from immediate danger. Miranda rights include the right to remain silent and the right to have a lawyer.

Good that the regular process of the legal system is falling into place. I have no doubt at all that the guy is guilty and deserves whatever punishment he gets. But if we dump due process in convicting him, we might just as well just dump the Constitution, period.
