9/11 Survivors who Battled Life-Threatening Illnesses rip terrorists’ plea agreement: ‘Deal with the devil’​

Survivors of 9/11 who battled cancer and other life-threatening illnesses in the years since the attacks were devastated and enraged to learn that the terror plot’s mastermind and two co-conspirators will escape the death penalty.

Several victims, whose ailments were brought on by toxic debris from the felled Twin Towers, on Thursday slammed the plea deals that US military prosecutors struck with three accused terrorists held on Guantánamo Bay, including primary plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.

“I’m disgusted. He killed 3,000 people and more than 3,000 if you consider all of the people who have been dying since he caused all of this pain and suffering,” Steven Hanges, a retired 20-year veteran of the NY Highway Patrol, who was diagnosed with thyroid cancer late last year.

Hanges, who began developing pulmonary symptoms in the weeks after 9/11 and has suffered from rhinitis, sinusitis and obstructive sleep apnea in the years since, has had his tumor removed and is doing well. But the news of the plea deals brought the emotional pain right back.

BREAKING NEWS: Plea Deals for 9/11 Mastermind and Two Other Terrorists Reinstated by military judge in shock ruling​


A military judge has said that plea deals sparing the Sept. 11 architect and two other terrorists should be reinstated in a shock ruling.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Bin Attash and Mustafa al-Hawasawi all agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy charges in exchange for a life sentence earlier this year.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin dramatically revoked their deals after widespread outrage over them.


The order, which hasn't been posted publicly yet, voided the demands of Austin and was first reported by the Associated Press.

The agreements would spare Mohammed and the others the risk of the death penalty in exchange for guilty pleas in the long-running 9/11 case.
