Boston Mayor Thomas Menino: Worcester Police Chief Gary Gemme

Worcester Police Chief Gary Gemme: The plea from Worcester Police Chief Gary Gemme came a day after he said that a deal struck Monday to bury the 26-year-old's remains at a state prison site had dissolved, with state officials no longer offering co-operation. State corrections officials didn't immediately return a phone message Wednesday, according to CTV. Boston Mayor Thomas Menino has said through an aide that he didn't want the bombing suspect buried in the city. Worcester funeral home director Peter Stefan has said none of the 120 offers of graves from the U.S. and Canada have worked out because officials in those cities and towns don't want the body either and BOSTON -- The dispute over where to bury suspected Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev escalated 19 days after his death as a police chief urged someone to step forward with a cemetery plot, saying: "We are not barbarians. We bury the dead." Police said it's costing the department tens of thousands of dollars to provide security at the funeral home that is holding Tsarnaev's body. Gemme said sending the body to Russia, Tsarnaev's homeland, is "not an option." (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
