Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was found guilty Wednesday of carrying out the attacks on the 2013 Boston Marathon. He was found guilty on all 30 charges brought against him, 17 of which carry the death penalty.

While the charges were read and the verdicts were given in the Massachusetts courtroom, Tsarnaev sat calmly with his hands clasped in front of him. 

Behind him sat dozen of survivors from the Patriots Day bombing and its aftermath that resulted in the deaths of four people, as well as his older brother Tamerlan, and left 17 more as amputees among the more than 260 injured on the streets of Boston.

Karen Brassard, who had multiple surgeries on her right leg after the bombings, was the first victim to speak outside of the courthouse following the proceedings. She was asked if she saw or expected to see any remorse from Tsarnaev in the courtroom.

"I didn't expect anything at all," Brassard told reporters. "We were talking about it inside if he showed any remorse and how we would feel about it. I personally wouldn't have bought it. I would have been more frustrated had he shown it. Through this whole thing he's been, to use my word, arrogant walking in and out of the courtroom and completely disinterested."

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh also issued a statement:

"I am thankful that this phase of the trial has come to an end and am hopeful for a swift sentencing process. I hope today's verdict provides a small amount of closure for the survivors, families, and all impacted by the violent and tragic events surrounding the 2013 Boston Marathon. The incidents of those days have forever left a mark on our City. As we remember those who lost so much, we reflect on how tragedy revealed our deepest values, and the best of who we are as a community."

Dic Donohue, the MBTA transit police officer wounded during a shootout in Watertown, reacted to the decision on Twitter.

He posted: "First, I want to thank everyone for supporting me and my family over the last two years. Although we cannot change the past, including the loss of a friend and fellow police officer, justice has been served today. We have again shown, as a society, that terrorism will not prevail, and we will hold those accountable for their acts against our nation."

On the Facebook page for her foundation, Heather Abbott, who lost her left leg in the bombing, thanked those who supported her throughout the two year since the attacks.

"Nothing can ever replace the lives that were lost or changed forever, but at least there is some relief in knowing that justice is served and responsibility will be taken," Abbott said.

The jury will take Thursday and Friday off before returning to the court early next week to begin the sentencing process.

"I don't know what justice is, but I'm grateful to have him off the street," Brassard added. 

"It's not something you'll ever be over. You will feel it forever and there will always be something that brings it back to the forefront. But we're all going to move on with our lives and get back to some sense of normalcy… hopefully."
