Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday that he believes the Russians know more about the Tsarnaev family than they are currently communicating to the United States, saying there must have been a reason the Russian government had secretly recorded a conversation between alleged bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his mother.
“If they were up on the mother or someone related to the mother and listening, there’s gotta be a basis for why they went up on her electronically, or why they went up on one of her affiliates or associates,” Schiff said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We don’t know that. We haven’t received that information from the Russians. I think they do know more than they’re telling us.”
