From Breitbart: Imprisoned 9/11 terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui has reportedly requested a transfer to French custody because he fears he will be executed if former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election.
Moussaoui’s request was reported on Tuesday by Legal Insurrection (LI), which noted the story received absolutely no mainstream media coverage. LI found out about the request from a relative of a 9/11 victim who fears French officials might be tempted to release Moussaoui if they gain custody of him.
LI confirmed the authenticity of Moussaoui’s request, which was submitted to the court in a handwritten letter in May. LI writer James Nault, who has experience as a clerk for the U.S. District Court system, explained that such handwritten messages are not unusual because inmates like Moussaoui are rarely given access to computers.
Breitbart further explained: “Moussaoui, now 56 years old, is the only person to be convicted in U.S. court in connection to the 9/11 attacks. He was arrested in 2001 before the attacks occurred because his efforts to obtain advanced flight training attracted suspicion.”
Moussaoui wrote in his letter that he had received a sentence of life without parole, but claimed, without evidence, that “there is a possibility, if not a probability,” that Trump would order his execution if he returns to the White House.
