A declassified document has been recently found attached to a court filing in a federal court case. The document reveals that defense lawyers for the alleged bombers of the USS Cole quit the case after discovering a microphone in their special client meeting room.
Even more startling is that the lawyers were ordered not to either talk about or investigate the microphone. The Miami Herald has broken the story.
Rick Kammen, a seasoned death-penalty defender, along with Rosa Eliades and Mary Spears, all resigned from the legal team of the defendants.
