Suspect 2 looks very similar to missing Brown student Sunil Tripathi
I strongly disagree. That Sunil guy’s nose is totally different. It’s a flatter nose that points downward. The other guy’s is much more straight.
Yep, and it fits with the blast pattern in the vicinity of the mailbox, too. The bag looks like it is leaning against the concrete surrounding the tree. That makes the bomb almost exactly 10 feet further north in the picture of the original suspected bag, with the backpack's face exposed outwards for maximum destruction.

Possibly with the dozens upon dozens of other personal belongings that people dropped while running from explosions.
Or possibly in a few pieces after exploding.

As I posed in another thread.
The remote control and triggering mechanisms used in at least one of these bombs was from an RC truck, and most likely triggered with an off the shelf RC car transmitter.
If you all are interested we've been looking into the photos they released of the remains of the bomb and identifying the parts.

These bombs were triggered anywhere from 45 ft to 3 miles away depending on the transmitter. The battery pack used with the given load would have lasted hours sitting there giving plenty of time to leave the scene. The cell phone tracking method is useless in this case...

And this would be a start to the "what else makes them suspicious" I was asking about.
Wow, indeed. That guy will have that image of the eye contact for the rest of his life. He probably felt "off" right at that instant but ignored his gut feelings.

How do we know he wasn't looking at one of their navy seals? He'll probably be a candidate for the 1st unexplained death.
for comparison
That looks a lot like the guy in the white hat. Suffering from depression and missing since March 16th.

And something tells me you are a-quiver waiting for it to happen.

"We" don't know who he was looking at, though since he says it was a couple of minutes before the bomb went off, it could be a matter of looking at photos from several minutes before, finding gray-on-gray shirt guy, and seeing if it's one of the "suspects" standing next to him. It doesn't really sound like the person stood still for very long, though.

Looked at latest pics:
Here's what I think... the kid might be part of the op and is simply in over his head. His erratic facial expressions and movements seem to suggest this. He's no master bomber more like someone who's being hung out to dry by his handlers.
I don't think suspect 1 has anything to do with this and is just there.
Has he turned up in any other pics?
There's LOTS of people walking round who look like suspect #1 with a backpack.
The kids movement and behavior is distinctly different.
He also seems to want to stand out with his white backwards cap. I mean seriously, who does that? He wants to be seen and photographed.. or rather the handlers want to make sure.
Conclusion: The kid is a backup patsy i'm pretty sure. Maybe he did dump a bomb or something. Who knows. Something's not right.

No duh.
Something's not right. No one goes out and does a bombing wearing a backwards white cap. I mean come on that's just too much.
You would know that your going to stand out on every camera around the area.
He's being handled.

Look at this picture. It's obviously Suspect #2 and the bag is right at his feet.
Right after the bomb, he takes off and is seen without the bag he was carrying.
Meanwhile, the guy who got his legs blown off is the guy who identified the first suspect.

What more do you need? It's going to become very apparent that suspect #1 planted the bomb near the finish line and suspect #2 planted the bomb by the tree in front of the forum 10 feet away from the street. Now were they handled? that's a different story altogether. Handled by whom is even a better question, and that doesn't mean I think it was false flag or US government operation. These guys didn't blow themselves up, yet wanted to inflict massive carnage. They must have known that the photographs and videos alone would eventually get them, so I'm still confused about the endgame here. Surely they won't allow themselves to be arrested, will they?

Here he is next to the 8 year old who died 
Suspect 2 is definitely part of this. 1 i doubt is involved.
