Gripping New Photos Released of Bloody Boston Bombing Suspect During His Capture

Boston Magazine has published new dramatic images of the hunt for and subsequent capture of marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev from the police officer who first released his photographs in response to Rolling Stone's controversial cover last month.

Massachusetts State Police tactical photographer Sgt. Sean Murphy was temporarily suspended and then placed on restricted duty for a time after giving the photos to Boston Magazine, which he said he did to counter the "fluffed and buffed" image of Tsarnaev on the cover of Rolling Stone.

Boston Magazine on Tuesday published more of Murphy's photographs from the days that gripped the city and the nation in April:
