DOSWELL, Va. -- Officials will examine whether all laws were followed in the quiet burial of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev in Virginia.
If not, leaders in rural Caroline County say they could seek to have his body moved elsewhere.
Sheriff Tony Lippa and Board of Supervisors chairman Floyd Thomas spoke Friday. They say no state or local officials were told that Tsarnaev would be buried in a private Muslim cemetery a short drive from the state capital.
Permission is not required from officials as long as laws are followed. Officials say they don't want the county remembered as the resting place for someone tied to a horrific act, but there's likely nothing they can do.
Officials say they are concerned about the site becoming a shrine to anti-U.S. sympathizers.
