The LA Times is reporting that the accused Benghazi mastermind, Ahmed Abu Khatallah, has learned his fate:
A federal jury convicted a Libyan militia leader of several terrorism-related charges on Tuesday but acquitted him of all murder charges in the 2012 attacks that killed four Americans in Benghazi, a partial success for U.S. efforts to prosecute accused terrorists in civilian courts.
Ahmed Abu Khatallah was found not guilty of murder in the armed attacks on a U.S. diplomatic mission and nearby CIA station that killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya, J. Christopher Stevens, and three other Americans.
Republican critics long charged that Hillary Clinton, then Secretary of State, had failed to provide adequate security for the mission, had ignored warnings of likely violence, and failed to respond swiftly to the coordinated assault.
The Obama administration decided not to seek the death penalty in the case, so when Khatallah is sentenced, at a later date, he’ll likely get several years in prison.
Meanwhile, another man, Mustafa al-Imam, also snatched from Libya by the U.S., will soon face trial on charges that he also took part in the attack.
