BOSTON – Jurors in the trial of Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev have been shown pressure cooker parts, BBs, nails and a piece of hobby fuse that were found in his apartment.
The items were found four days after the 2013 terror attack, which killed three people and injured more than 260 others.

Tsarnaev’s lawyers have admitted that he and his brother, Tamerlan, planted and detonated two pressure-cooker bombs near the marathon finish line.
Prosecutors have said the bombs were filled with BBs, nails and other shrapnel. They have also said the bombs were made with fuses from Christmas tree lights. A string of lights was also found in the Cambridge apartment.
