Plea deals revived for alleged 9/11 mastermind and others
By Ellen Knickmeyer, The Associated Press
 Thursday, Nov 7, 2024

 
A military judge has ruled that plea agreements struck by alleged Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and two co-defendants are valid, voiding an order by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to throw out the deals, a government official said.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity Wednesday because the order by the judge, Air Force Col. Matthew McCall, has not yet been posted publicly or officially announced.
 

Unless government prosecutors or others attempt to challenge the plea deals again, McCall’s ruling means that the three 9/11 defendants before long could enter guilty pleas in the U.S. military courtroom at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, taking a dramatic step toward wrapping up the long-running and legally troubled government prosecution in one of the deadliest attacks on the United States.

The plea agreements would spare Mohammed and two co-defendants, Walid bin Attash and Mustafa al-Hawsawi, the risk of the death penalty in exchange for the guilty pleas.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Whatever deal they have, I have a better one.

Tie each perp down on the ramp of an aircraft carrier and wrap all his sexual junk with piano wire, run the wire to the number 3 arresting gear, and place it next to the arresting gear cable.  Then have jets come in with their tail hooks down and have a few near passes at the wires before actually trying to catch it.  If the perp can walk with his junk at the other end of the flight deck. he can walk away.  But he must walk with no pee or dodo in his pants to be free. 000hehehehe
