Seems he 'fessed up to it during the trial, if you believe him. I have to say, his testimony reminded me a little of that guy, Colin something or other, who shot up a train in or around New York and then represented himself in court. Anyone remember that? He was some kind of wacko.
Right -- the guy is clearly unhinged -- who knows what to believe. Regardless, I didn't know that either lying or failing to act was a capital offense. Does anyone here really believe that an admission from this nutcake before 9/11 would have prevented the tragedy? Personally, I find it extremely unlikely.
