Extra: Alleged 9/11 Plotter Get Plea Deal Revoked, A Relief To Victims’ Families
A story nearly 23 years in the making: the controversial plea deal for the September 11th terror suspects was offered over a week ago by a U.S. prosecutor, then accepted by three detainees accused of plotting the attacks, including Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind behind hijacking airplanes.
That plea deal upset some 9/11 victims’ families for taking the death penalty off the table for those suspects. Two days later, that deal was voided by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.
We spoke with Brett Eagleson, whose father, Bruce, died in one of the twin towers. He’s now President of 9/11 Justice. Brett shares what kind of pain this plea deal would inflict on the families of victims, his relief that the deal was revoked, and the legacy of his late father on the Fox News Rundown Extra.
