The first – and maybe only – trial of those accused of orchestrating and financing the Sept. 11 attacks has hit yet another legal snag that could delay the case for years.
The Los Angeles Times reports that the 9/11 conspiracy case against five suspects at Guantanamo Bay is mired in controversy related to the defense team for the suspected mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.
The defense team earlier this week accused the FBI of trying to turn one of the lawyers into an informant.
Then on Thursday, the judge in the case confirmed that the defense team is under investigation for alleged wrongdoing.
The sluggish pace of the case has frustrated victims of the terrorist attacks.
