9/11 Trial Could Cost Taxpayers Over $100M

Attorney General Eric Holder faced some angry Senators Wednesday who wanted to know his reasons for bringing terror suspects to New York to stand trial.

Addressing concerns that trying Khalid Sheik Mohammed and his associates here could endanger the city, Holder said their trial wouldn't be the first of its kind on U-S soil, and won't be the last.

The accused terrorists are considered captured enemy combatants, so some senators want to know why they can't be tried before a military court, or held until the war on terror is over and tried then. The attorney general's response? Because justice is long overdue for the victims of 9/11.
