Judge Throws Out Another Confession in Sept. 11 Case
Original: Judge Throws Out Another Confession in Sept. 11 Case https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/02/us/politics/confession-sept-11-t
A federal judge has thrown out another confession in the long-running September 11 terrorism case, according to a New York Times report. The ruling is the latest in a series of setbacks in the prosecution of the accused plotters held at Guantanamo Bay, where pretrial proceedings have been stalled for years over questions about torture, CIA custody and the admissibility of statements made by the defendants. The decision renews debate over whether the case can ever come to trial.
Why now: The Sept. 11 prosecution remains one of the most contested legal cases in America, and each ruling on coerced confessions draws wide attention.
