Who Is the Attorney Behind Moussaoui Case?
http://www.abcnews.go.com/US/LegalCenter/story?id=1724957&page=1


She (the judge) also expressed her doubts about Transportation Security Administration attorney Carla J. Martin, saying that Martin told one witness sought by defense lawyers that he could not speak to them and that Martin falsely told the defense that two other witnesses were not willing to speak to them. "I wouldn't trust anything Martin had anything to do with at this point," Brinkema said outside the jury's presence.

Now at the TSA, Martin also served at the Federal Aviation Administration beginning in 1987 and was an FAA attorney at the 1992 Pan Am 103 trial. During that trial, she was ready to close the courtroom if testimony covered sensitive government security information.

Meanwhile, Martin is said to be "devastated" by the ruling in the case. ABC spoke with her mother, Jean Martin Lay, who said her daughter is "totally devastated, wiped out" and crying.

Asked if any former colleagues at the FAA were helping her daughter now, Lay said, "No, everyone is mad at her now."

1. She is devastated for breaking a well known rule....
no sympathy here....:nopity:

You break the rules you pay the price....and in this case America and the 9/11 families paid the price for her trying to cheat and intentionally breaking the rules..in a court case...

If this is the type of people prosecuting these cases we should probably stop ahead of the game because they are going to blow more cases....

Who have they successfully prosecuted?
