In Miami, federal prosecutors have been dealt another setback in a closely watched terrorism case. For the second time, a mistrial has been declared because of a deadlocked jury in the trial of six Miami men accused of providing material support to al-Qaeda to destroy FBI buildings and Chicago’s Sears Tower. University of Miami Law Professor Bruce Winick said, “The jury doesn’t trust the government’s credibility here. It’s a trumped-up, overblown case.” The US attorney’s office in Miami has until Wednesday to decide whether to seek a third trial.
