Plea deal with accused 9/11 plotters revoked | LiveNOW from FOX

On Friday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin revoked a controversial plea deal that would have reportedly taken the death penalty off the table for 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammad, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin 'Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi, who are awaiting trial in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

The announcement came after House Republicans on the Armed Services and Oversight committees separately launched investigations into the circumstances of the plea agreement.

Nearly 3,000 people were killed on September 11, 2001. It is the worst terror attack on U.S. soil in American history. Families of the victims, groups that represent them and lawmakers expressed anger that those who planned the attack might not be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. #livefromfox #foxnews #breakingnews #topstories #politicalnews #globalnews #worldaffairs #newsalert #republicans #biden #trumptrain #israel #freepalestine #trump #news
