U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema's April 7 order requires prosecutors to provide copies of all unclassified aviation security documents to attorneys representing September 11 families in a civil lawsuit pending in New York. Prosecutors called the order "unprecedented" and urged Brinkema to withdraw it. The motion was filed by Chuck Rosenberg, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Brinkema's order would allow the families' attorneys access to "highly sensitive" law enforcement documents and could compromise the continuing investigation into the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The inquiry is "the largest criminal investigation in our nation's history, which is still ongoing," the motion says. "This order will likely provoke negative consequences for numerous criminal cases in the future," prosecutors said. Rosenberg requested a May 19 hearing.
The order would require the government to begin turning over copies of documents two weeks after a verdict is returned in Moussaoui's trial. - cnn
Cool. Is it "highly sensitive" because it shows connections to the real, as yet unrevealed conspirators? For you people who thought the 9/11 Commission Report was the complete story, here is your answer. This is an admission that the whole story is still hidden, the investigation is ongoing. I thought they had it all figured out. Why drag it out for years? Because some conspirators remain cleverly hidden inside our own Govt.?
