Terrorism Cases To Bring New Scrutiny To N.Y. Court

from National Public Radio
November 13, 2009

Melissa Block talks about some of the legal obstacles to come with Joshua Dratel, a consultant with the ACLU's John Adams Project, which fought on behalf of Guantanamo detainees to get their cases transferred out of military court.
