 I am Carl Azuz. Welcome to CNN studentnews. This week the victims of Boston terror bombing are being honored indifferent ways. That's how we start off today show. Yesterday, the city of Boston paused for amoment of silence at 2:50 pm. The same time when one week earlier explosionwent off near the finish line at Boston Marathon. More than 180 people wereinjured by the explosions around 50 of them are still in the hospital. Threepeople were killed in the attack. Memorial services for two of them KrystleCampbell and Lingzu Lu were held on Monday. The surviving suspect DzokharTsarnaev has been in the hospital since he was arrested last Friday. He can'ttalk because of his injuries but his communicating with investigators 1 bynodding his head. Yesterday, he was charged with using a weapon of massive destructionand with malicious 2 destruction property by means ofexplosion device. If he committed, those charges could result in a deadpenalty.


When he was arrested, the suspect was notread his Miranda Rights. There are some debates about that. We are going intoit just in a minute. But first Jane Cersoura's going explain a little moreabout Miranda Rights.
The Miranda warning is the constitutionallybased in and it's very important for every single citizen in the country.Because let's say you have been interrogated 3 by law enforcement. You don't feelfree to leave. And you say things that incriminate yourself. They could uselater on the court of law against you. So it's very important to have knowledgeof that and to be given notice of that. The Miranda warning was born from acase in Arizona. Miranda verses Arizona that was a man being prosecuted 4 for thedomestic of violence. And all the statements were let in when he was not givena warning. He didn't know that they could be. So here's what happened, let'ssay someone has been interrogated. The Miranda warning is you have a right toremain silence; anything you say can be used to against you. You have a rightto have an attorney president.
Officers don't have to read a suspect hisor her Miranda rights. If they don't usually means that anything the suspecttells police can't be used as evidence. But for this case, the FederalGovernment is using something called the public safety exception. It saysinvestigators can question a suspect before reading the Miranda rights if theinvestigators believe there is a threat to public safety. And those statementscan't be used as trial. During the manhunt for the surviving for the survivingbombing suspect last Friday, a lot of Boston in the surrounding suburbs werelocked down. Businesses didn't open, people didn¡¯t go to work. The city therewas already railing for the human cost of the violence; suddenly have to dealwith economics caused as well. Cristine Roman is examining that impact.
Economists 5 say the loses from shuttingBoston down for a day are big. But short-term and any businesses and thebroader Boston economy will be able to absorb and make up for those losses. JimDabler from ISH just global research says it could be as much as a third to aquarter of Boston business that was shut down on Friday. Boston is a bigeconomy. It's a lot of money. The Boston metropolitan 6 area produces 3 to 25billion dollars with the goods and services every year. That's a little lessonof billion dollars a day. So think that. A third to a quarter of that just gonefrom Friday. And of course, Boston is the 9th largest GDP in the country, soit's a big American city shut down. Everything stopped Friday. Businesses areclosed. Public transit 7 known in Boston as the t shut down. 16 of the area's 35colleges had canceled classes, including Harvard, MIT, Boston University, NorthEastern. Most taxis were off roads and shopping centers were shut. But whilemany work from home or had the day off. Some workers actually couldn't bebusier. Thousands, thousands of law enforcement officials and works, hospitalworkers, hotel employees working overtime 8, some Dunkey donuts locations stayopen well, reportedly at the request of first responders. There was a lot ofbusinesses there and there are insurance claims businesses can file forterrorism related losses if it is covered and analysts 9 at risk managementsolution says that a property damage claims are likely to be less than a milliondollars. It will be the business interruption that would be what's gonna costsome companies money and it's gonna to be difficult for small businesses to getback that revenue meet their payroll 10.
