Good for this judge...

A federal judge expressed frustration Tuesday that the government provided incorrect information about evidence in the prosecution of Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui and raised the possibility of ordering a new trial in another high-profile terrorism case.

I told you once a law enforcement agency lies the court can't trust what they say anymore. Look at what happen in New York when the Court and Rudy supported the police department in the case of the attack in the men's room at the police station. For a year and a half Rudy stood fast and supported the Officer charged saying if he could he would drop the case. The Court leaned toward the Officer. Last day of the trial the two other officers said the main Officer lied and was guilty of all the crimes. Yes egg on the face of Mayor Rudy and the Court. Now how many people have been found guilty with the lies by the CIA. We now know they played the main roll in the murder of JFK. Who else?
Heres one of several news events describing the Z.M. trial and him forced to wear a tazer/shock/stun type belt at court procedings.
