According to the State Bureau of Prisons website, “The Federal Medical Center (FMC) Devens is an administrative facility housing male offenders requiring specialized or long-term medical or mental health care. FMC Devens also has a satellite camp housing minimum security male inmates”

“FMC Devens is located in north central Massachusetts, approximately 39 miles west of Boston and 20 miles north of Worcester, on the decommissioned military base of Fort Devens.”

Charges

Charges have been filed by the federal government against Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

According to the Justice Department, Tsarnaev was charged with one count of using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death and one count of malicious destruction of property by means of an explosive device resulting in death. If convicted, the counts could result in the death penalty.

Tsarnaev appeared before Magistrate Judge Marianne B. Bowler in his hospital room at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Boston. A public defender was appointed to represent him, according to the office of the Federal Public Defender in Boston.
A probable cause hearing has been scheduled for May 30 in U.S. District Court.
