Quote:The military trial of five alleged 9/11 conspirators could be in limbo amidst allegations of FBI spying on the defense team. FBI agents questioned a contractor working as a security guard for one of the suspect's lawyers earlier this month. The contractor was forced to sign a confidentiality form, a move attorneys say turns him into a de-facto informant. The military judge overseeing pre-trial hearings has opened the way for an inquiry. Prosecutors had hoped for jury selection to begin early next year, but the defense says the trials could now be delayed until 2017. Attorney James Connell said only one person appears to have come under FBI questioning so far.James Connell: "Our preliminary investigation leads us to hope that it may be combined, you know, that we may have nipped this in the bud just after it started. Is that gonna turn out to be true? I don't know. But so far, we don't have information that the investigation has spread beyond Mr. [Ramzi] Bin al Shibh's defense security officer."The spying allegation follows previous claims by the attorneys that Guantánamo Bay prison officials have monitored their communications.
The surveillance state we now all live in is 99% complete. No such thing any more as attorney-client privilege nor privacy. No such thing as privacy for anyone...the Secret State knows all... At the least, a delay of 3+ years means longer [illegal] detention for those being tried - without due cause. Any who still think 'these kinds of things only happen to bad guys..not to people like me' had best think again!
