Trial Date Set for Alleged 9/11 Mastermind and Co-Conspirators in Guantánamo Bay
The military judge, Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, has decided that the alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, along with three other terrorists held in Guantánamo Bay, will face trial in 2028. This ruling comes just before the 25th anniversary of the tragic attacks that claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 individuals.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his alleged co-conspirators have been detained at the Cuba military base since 2003, awaiting trial in a case that has been plagued by delays. Despite government prosecutors' request to start the trial in January 2027, the judge has set the trial date for June 5, 2028.
