I have to believe the deal was revoked for political reasons. It may have been considered too lenient to hang on Biden/Harris with the elections coming up?
It is unusual to revoke a plea deal after it has been signed and announced
These are Guantanamo guys. The rules are different. Typical prosecutions don't involve the defense secretary.
Even in traditional prosecutions, there are ways to unwind plea deals, depending on the facts.
If a deal is seen as lenient, the Republicans can use the deal against her in the election. She is tied to the current administration as vice president. I can see the ads now. Harris locks up people for minor marijuana violations, but gives terrorists a plea bargain.
It is of course revoked for political reasons. The 9/11 was a massacre and to deal the conspirators with mercy for this would ruin any hopes for the Dems in coming elections.
And the owner of the buildings. He made above alot of cash. which he wouldn't of gotten just selling it.
Plus odd who wasn't in building the day of the attack.
(It may have been considered too lenient to hang on Biden/Harris with the elections coming up) perhaps it would be true
As we can see the current seatuion
Strange to announce it then shortly after announce that it has been revoked.
My understanding looking at this from outside the US was that the government said they hadn’t agreed it, the prosecutors told them about it on Wednesday. I saw that Biden had rejected a plea deal last year.
Definitely think that it isn’t a good look to agree a plea deal in an election year but I do wonder if they announced the prisoner swap with Russia around the same time so that it wasn’t the lead piece in the news.
