穆萨维审判周四进入第二阶段 (Moussaoui Sentencing Trial Enters Second Phase)

被拘押的恐怖分子穆萨维的审判工作星期四进入第二阶段。陪审团听取了2001年9/11事件受害者家属的陈诉。在这一阶段结尾时，陪审团将决定穆萨维是被执行死刑还是终身监禁。

遇难者亲属们作证的前一天，美国联邦法官裁定，联合航空公司93号航班驾驶舱里的录音可以在法庭审理案件时播放。法官让死难者家属在下星期二之前告诉她，录音在法庭播放后是否可以对公众播放。

93号航班是在据信一些旅客和劫持者搏斗之后在宾州坠毁的。有关方面认为，劫持者原本想用这架飞机撞击国会大厦。


The sentencing trial of convicted terrorist Zacarias Moussaoui enters a second phase today (Thursday), with jurors hearing from relatives of victims of the September 11th (2001) terror attacks. At the end of this phase, the jury will decide if Moussaoui will be executed or spend the rest of his life in prison.

The relatives' testimony comes a day after a U.S. federal judge ruled that the cockpit voice recording of the hijacked United Airlines Flight 93 can be played at the trial. She has given the families of the passengers on that flight until next Tuesday to tell her if they would object to the recording being released to the public after it is played in the courtroom.

Flight 93 crashed into a field in Pennsylvania after some of the passengers are believed to have fought the hijackers. The hijackers are thought to have wanted to crash the plane into the U.S. Capitol.
