A judge threw out a key confession made by 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohmmed just two weeks before the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.
This is the latest blow to the federal government.
Recall that in July 2024, under the Biden Regime, three September 11 masterminds reached plea deals with the US government, the Department of Defense said.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and his co-conspirators Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawhi will avoid the death penalty in a pre-trial plea deal reached.
An appeals court later canceled that agreement, so the death penalty is back on the table.
3,000 Americans were killed in the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on the Twin Towers in New York, the Pentagon, and a downed plane in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
On Friday, the New York Post reported that a military judge tossed out a confession by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
Khalid Sheikh Mohhamed is currently detained at the Guantanamo Bay Detention Center (Gitmo), a US Military prison in Cuba.
His trial is scheduled for 2028.
The New York Post reported:
A military judge on Friday threw out a key confession made by the self-proclaimed mastermind of the 9/11 attacks — in a major blow to the feds that could derail the already long-delayed case.
Head plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s 2007 statements made to FBI investigators were not voluntarily given, trial judge Lt. Col. Michael Schrama wrote in a bombshell ruling.
The US military did not make the decision public — citing a “security review” — but sources familiar with its contents said the judge axed Mohammed’s confessions from the case in the ruling, saying the admitted terrorist was subject to “severe coercion” from FBI agents.
“The prosecution has failed to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that Mr. Mohammad’s statements to the F.B.I. were voluntarily given,” Schrama concluded, according to the sources.
The decision comes just days after Schrama set Mohammed’s trial for June 2028 — with the 25th anniversary of the world-altering Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people, looming in two weeks.
The head military prosecutor overseeing the case, Rear Adm. Aaron C. Rugh, said that he would review the ruling and “make a decision on whether to appeal in the near future.”
