More on Carla Martin, Moussaoui and the 9/11 Civil Litigation
The AP reports on the connection between Carla Martin and the 9/11 civil litigation, and posits that her motive was not to help win a conviction for the Government in Moussaui, but to aid the government's and airlines' defense in the civil ligitation. TalkLeft was the first to raise this theory -- three days ago.
It appears to me Ms. Martin was trying to coach and influence the witness' testimony not to convict Moussaoui, but to prevent the FAA from being found at fault in the civil litigation over 9/11. American and United are hoping for the same result -- hence her collaboration with their lawyers.
Don't forget to check out this letter attached to the defense objection to Judge Brinkema reconsidering Tuesday's ruling excluding the aviation witnesses and evidence. It was written by the plaintiff's lawyers in the 9/11 civil litigation to the New York Judge presiding in that case, and raises these concerns (Further explanation here.)
