WASHINGTON, June 9 (UPI) -- Defense lawyers have asked that the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, trial of the alleged mastermind of the USS Cole bombing in 2000 be televised in the United States.
The request was made in a 14-page brief filed Friday with the Pentagon. It asked the military judge in the case to provide a video feed of the proceedings at Guantanamo Bay directly to C-SPAN and five other major networks.
