DOUBLE DIPPING??????

"U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced he's moving the trials from a military court to a civilian court, where his former law firm Covington and Burling could benefit financially. The move also gives the alleged terrorists the rights of Americans citizens in a U.S. court.

Covington and Burling could reap millions of dollars in representing the alleged terrorists, as it has done in representing other alleged terrorists, including 17 Yemenis currently in custody at the U.S. Guantanamo prison facility in Cuba.

But Holder will rely heavily for his prosecution on information supplied by the German government, which previously has cooperated. The difference now is that Holder has announced he will seek the death penalty for the alleged 9/11 conspirators if they are found guilty."
