Federal officials have confirmed that female DNA and separate fingerprints were found on the pressure cooker bomb involved in the Boston Marathon attacks. While authorities are looking into the DNA investigation, agents arrived at the Rhode Island home of Katherine Russell — Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s widow — to gather a DNA sample from her.

The widow has insisted that she was left in the dark about her husband’s and brother-in-law’s plans, and while authorities are not suspicious of a larger terrorist group involved, they have not yet ruled out that others were not in the know. Katherine’s lawyer, Amato A. DeLuca, wrote via email yesterday:

Oh no… we hope this doesn't jeopardize the case against him!

Suspected co-conspirator of the Boston attacks Dzhokhar Tsarnaev recently CONFESSED to his and his brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev's role in the terror plot and detailed the driving forces behind the horrific incident…

But he did so BEFORE being read his Miranda rights AKA before he was advised by the law of his constitutional right to remain quiet until a lawyer is appointed on his behalf!

After about 16 hours of questioning, a magistrate judge and a representative from the U.S. Attorney's office reportedly arrived to Tsarnaev's hospital room and read him his rights, at which time he STOPPED talking to officials.

The question that now remains is IF any of what Dzhokhar Tsarnaev said prior

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy are just two of many who hold Boston in a special place in their hearts!

To show appreciation for all the hard work Boston’s police force and FBI agents have put in throughout the past week, the two co-stars have decided to arrange a special screening of their unreleased movie for them!!

The movie, The Heat, is a comedy that was filmed in Boston about a FBI agent and a police detective. And it couldn't have been filmed without the help of law-enforcement officials there!

Through that experience, Bullock discovered first-hand how amazing these heroic men and women are.

She said the following about boston’s police and FBI agents:

The FBI has narrowed down the Boston Marathon bombing suspects to two, but after the first suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev was gunned down by police in Waterton after he killed a campus cop at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology… celebs are now talking about the manhunt for the second suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Boston is currently on lockdown, but while the FBI tries to track down Dzhokhar, here's what the stars are saying:

Whats happening in Boston is intense right now…

Oh no!!

It turns out CNN and the Associated Press were probably wrong!

The Boston Police Department and apparently the U.S. Department of Justice just confirmed no arrest has been made in regards to the bombings in Boston earlier this week!!

Talk about the plot THICKENING!

This is seriously crazy! And NOT good!

As we reported, Diddy was the latest celebrity victim in a series of increasingly problematic, frightening pranks occurring all over El Lay come to known as SWATTING!

If you've been living under a rock the last few months, here's how it goes: the police receive an anonymous call that there's a home being invaded, authorities send out multiple officers to investigate, and they discover a celebrity's home, usually empty, with no signs of a break-in, let alone a crime of any nature!

Yeah! Not FUNNY!

Not to mention HUGE drain on resources!

But while the first incident, which occurred at Ashton Kutcher's home, was discovered to be the work of a 12-year-old boy, it appears that a collective of hackers, responsible for leaking the finances of celebrities, amongst other things, have announced that basically every SWATTING incident since has been because of THEM!

Although they've only publicly taken credit for the rapper yesterday and

The last we heard of Whitney Houston and the FBI was back in December, when a P.I. swore up and down that her death was a murder over a drug deal gone bad.

But now the Federal Bureau has released a cache of 128 pages containing letters, as well as other documents, chronicling incidences with the singer between the years 1988-1992.

In the files released, a long series of handwritten letters are revealed. These love notes come from a "devoted fan," who endlessly confessed his eternal love to the legendary singer. While his letters seemed encouraging for the most part, with messages to "keep smiling," they were persistent in requests for a meeting.

It appears the fan's desperation enlarged the more he attended concerts and the more he sent flowers and letters… all of which were ignored.

Frustrated and hurt, he eventually wrote the disturbing message:
