Supreme Court Declines Guantanamo Plea Deal Case, Death Penalty Stays in Play
Original: Supreme Court Declines Review of Guantanamo Plea Deal Dispute, Leaving Death Penalty in Play
The US Supreme Court has declined to hear a dispute over plea agreements for detainees held at Guantanamo Bay accused in the September 11 attacks. The decision leaves the death penalty as a possible outcome in the long-running military commissions case, deferring resolution of whether the agreements were validly rescinded.
Why now: The case concerns whether 9/11 defendants can avoid execution through plea deals, a major unresolved question in the two-decade-old Guantanamo proceedings.
