Rolling Stone
recently announced on its Facebook page that a Boston Marathon bombing suspect will be featured on the cover of their August edition of the magazine.

Dzhokhar "Jahar" Tsarnaev recently pleaded not guilty to 30 charges including murder and using weapons of mass destruction. More than half of the charges levied against the 19-year-old carry with them a potential death sentence penalty.

"In our new issue, contributing editor Janet Reitman delivers a deeply reported account of the life of (alleged) Boston bomber Jahar Tsarnaev," reads a status posted on the magazine's Facebook page on Tuesday.
