Defense calls for probe into FBI questioning of 9/11 trial counsel

In the emergency motion, the defense team stated that on April 6 two agents for the FBI‘s Joint Terrorism Task Force appeared at the home of a team member for one of the defendants and asked questions about the defense counsel‘s work. The motion said this raises the specter of a potential conflict of interest between the defense team‘s loyalty to its clients and its interest in demonstrating its innocence to the FBI.
