U.S. Seeks Death Penalty for 9-11 Terrorist Attack Suspects

The Pentagon plans to charge six men detained at Guantanamo Bay for the Sept 11th terrorist attacks on America. They are seeking the death penalty for the men. One of the men, named Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, is supposedly the mastermind behind the attack, where hijacked planes were flown into buildings in New York and Washington. Prosecutors have been working for years to build the case against the suspects.

The trial will be held in a specially made court at Guantanamo that will allow lawyers, journalists, and some other people attend. The men would be tried in the military tribunal system that was set up by the Bush administration after the start of the war on terror. The system has been criticized for its rules on legal representation for suspects, hearings behind closed doors, and allegations of inmate abuse at Guantanamo.

A Car Lands in Chiropractor's Clinic

For the second time in four months and the third time since the shop opened Bob Ziegler has had a motorist drive into his clinic. Luckily there were no patients in the waiting room at the time. In both cases the cars were driven by elderly women. The women were not given tickets. Officers have the choice to not write tickets when cars hit buildings. There were no injuries reported. The clinic owner, Bob Ziegler, wants to talk to his landlord about placing barriers in front of the clinic to stop cars.
