Let Him Rot

I thought U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema got this exactly right, acting on the recommendation of the jury.

Aside from the fact that the prosection could not tie Moussaoui more directly to the 9/11 attacks, life in prison is appropriate for this criminal.

Don’t give him drama, or fanfare, or a soapbox from which he can pelt us with more propaganda. Just give him a gray, cement cell, a lumpy cot, open sink and toilet, and as many years at it takes for him to eventually fade into memory and suffer a slow, inexorable death.
