By Michele McPhee - Boston Ailina Tsarnaeva - the sister of the accused Boston Marathon bomber brothers - was arrested in New York City today for allegedly telling a woman she was arguing with, I know some people who will put a bomb on you, NYPD sources said. Tsarnaeva, 23, lives in New Jersey with Katherine Russell aka Karina Tsarnaeva, the widow of her eldest brother Tamerlan, killed in a shootout with police on Watertown days after the Boston Marathon attacks that killed three and wounded 260 others. More than a dozen of those victims lost limbs. Tsarnaeva and her sister Bella Tsarnaeva have visited their younger brother, Dzhokhar, at a Massachusetts prison where he is awaiting trial on terrorism and murder charges, according to court records. During one such visit Tsarnaev was accused of making a detrimental statement in front of a FBI agent monitoring the visit, the court records state. She is charged with aggravated harassment, NYPD sources confirm. She is slated to go on trial next month in South Boston on charges she intimidated a witness and passed counterfeit money at a Boston Applebees. Last year Ailinas older sister Bella, was in court on drug charges in New Jersey. Their mother, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, has an open warrant connected to a shoplifting arrest in Natick but remains in Russia where she has been since she met Tamerlan there in 2012. Dzhokhar Tsarnaevs trial is slated to begin in November. He is facing the death penalty.
