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 her sister Bella and 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. The Tsarnaeva sisters 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. Tsarnaeva turned herself in to the NYPD today, a spokesman confirmed. Tsarnaeva made the threatening call to a Harlem woman on Monday, police confirmed. Sources said the victim is the ex-girlfriend of the father of her infant. Tsarnaeva is also slated to go on trial next month in South Boston on charges she intimidated a witness and passed counterfeit money at a Boston Applebees and repeatedly lied to police about the incident. 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.
