Eric Holder said the NYC terror trials would cost $75 mil.... New York city says...

It will cost over $400 million.

That's if it does not drag out. Add $206 million for security annually if the trial goes longer than 2 years.

That military tribunal sure looks good now.

After the first trial upcoming trials will include...

Walid Bin Attas then Ramzi Binalshibh then Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi...

Cha-ching.

that's pretty typical when a pol estimates costs... see 'health care bill'...

and either this or the other one that was just posted will die...

REpost. Look at my thread.

Mine is better because the costs cover 2 years... the other thread just says 200 million. Not the same impact.

you need to virtual arm wrestle since both posts have the same time on them...

and the cost will be half a bil before it's done... wait until the appeals due to the pres and ag saying on national tv that the guys are guilty, will be executed, etc...

no worries, I dont mind midn paying more taxes to give them a 'fair and well deserved trial' instead of some 9mm luger to the back of the head

I agree, it's too expensive to adhere to our laws.
