Even though the towers are gone, the legacy of the World Trade Center and the people who died on 9/11 lives on — and so do the efforts to get justice.
50 years ago today, the World Trade Center’s twin towers debuted as the tallest buildings in the world.
Even though the towers are gone, the legacy of the World Trade Center and the people who died on 9/11 lives on — as do the efforts to get justice for these attacks. Ammar al-Baluchi is named in the charges as Abd al Aziz Ali. As suspect number four, he stands accused of providing money transfers to hijackers.
As part of America’s"War on Terror" following the September 11 attacks, the CIA began what’s known as a"black sites" program. They operated these secret sites between 2002 and 2008. "Large parts of that of that piece of legislation directly violate basic constitutional rights. Many people would argue that the Fourth and Fifth Amendment were directly challenged By the Patriot Act," Perliger said.
The government is aware that circumstances of these interrogations could make those CIA findings useless in a trial context. That’s why starting in 2006, a so-called"clean team" of FBI interrogators set out to replicate the CIA's findings and get the suspects to share the same information without the pressure of torture. They claimed to have spent 16 months building a rapport with the suspects.
Part of the procedural guarantees Goldman’s referring to is the writ of habeas corpus, the right of a detained person to face a judge and either be given a valid reason why they're being detained or be released. The men who’ve passed through Gitmo over the years never got this opportunity. There are a lot of other reasons for the delays too. These include changes in judges – there have been four separate ones to grace the bench since 2012 — trouble finding a fair jury, and changes in defense lawyers.
