Two roommates living with serial bombing suspect Mark Conditt were questioned by investigators Wednesday but not arrested. Both were released by police Thursday.
Jennifer Withers said her son lived in Conditt's home for about three months.
“We didn’t suspect anything,” Withers said.
She said she received a call from one of her son’s friends Wednesday morning, a few hours after Conditt died, saying her son was being taken away in handcuffs.
Investigators said Wednesday afternoon the home had a room full of material used to make homemade bombs, including “exotic batteries” from Asia, the same kind used in each of the bombs.
“As far as I know, he [her son] did not know what was going on as far as the bomb building,” Withers said.
Withers said she never met the other roommates.
