More GOP lawmakers are demanding answers from the Pentagon about a potential plea deal that might shield 9/11 terrorist attack orchestrators from the death penalty.
, R.-Texas, and Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R.-N.Y., sent a letter Monday to Secretary of State Lloyd Austin calling a potential plea deal"completely unacceptable," adding it would rob victims' families of a"full measure of justice."
"These families have already been robbed of their loved ones, they should not also be robbed of the full measure of justice in this case. The September 11th plotters are mass murderers, deserving of the ultimate punishment. Indeed, if there are persons walking the face of the Earth who are deserving of the death penalty, it is these five men.
"It’s been 22 years since the September 11th terrorist attacks. My colleagues & I are telling @POTUS that plea deals for the terrorists responsible for those horrific attacks are unacceptable. These murderers deserve the death penalty - NOTHING less," Malliotakis posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, Monday.
"This is an absurd betrayal of justice," Eagleson said of the negotiations."This is all about the fact that they're entering into plea deals, which would allow these five inmates to avoid a public trial — and we deserve better as Americans.""We are families who have been fighting for 22 years for the real story for truth and accountability.
