Moussaoui Gets Life

[scaeagles]

Surely this was precedent setting in terms of law in that he wasn't found guilty of having a direct role in 9/11. Under federal law related to terrorism, I think, all that was required was that the jury found the he was responsible for at least one death in the Sept 11 attacks, and they found that he was responsible due to his participation in the conspiracy and lying to federal investigators a few weeks before the attacks.

So....under the law, obviously, the death penalty was on the table. I'm not sure how you can say he had "no knowledge" of it.....I can't say he did. I wasn't on the jury, I didn't hear the case. However, since he was found guilty and found to be eligible for the death penalty by a jury, I'd have been fine either way.
