Decision To Hold 9-11 Terror Trial In NYC Sparks Security Concerns

A New York City Police emergency vehicle idles on Wall Street on November 16, 2009 in New York City. A decision by the United States Attorney General Eric Holder to bring Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of 9/11, to New York City to face trial in a civilian court rather than a military commission has divided New Yorkers. Four other accused terrorists from Guantanamo Bay are to be brought with Mohammed to a high-security federal prison in Manhattan. Many people, including the mayor of New York at the time of the September 11 terrorist attacks, Rudolph W. Giuliani, have voiced security concerns about bringing the suspects to Manhattan.
