CNN: Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Less Talkative After Being Mirandized

I present with no comment:
The Boston bombing suspect has become less talkative since authorities read him his Miranda rights before charging him with using a weapon of mass destruction. They also moved him from a private to a prison hospital. 
But the information Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, gave investigators in two sessions of questioning spanning three days has produced good leads, a U.S. law enforcement official said. 
Investigators have completed combing a dump in New Bedford, Massachusetts, for clues that could shed light on the suspects behind the bloody attack, said FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller, who wouldn't say whether they turned up anything. 
They were looking for Tsarnaev's laptop, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the investigation said.
Ok, I can't constrain my inner-pundit from commenting.

Is anyone really freaking surprised that a terrorist, once read his miranda rights, would actually stop talking to investigators and end the flow of information exchanged? If you are... You obviously haven't been paying that much attention the past decade that terrorists in general aren't very talkative unless properly persuaded.

What say you?
