The Department of Justice Inspector General released a newly declassified version of its 2004 audit of the FBI’s handling of intelligence information related to the September 11 attacks, including a newly disclosed chapter (large pdf) on the case of Zacarias Moussaoui.
In a previously released version of the report, the entire chapter 4 on Moussaoui had been withheld by court order because of Moussaoui’s ongoing trial. With the conclusion of that trial last month, the suppressed chapter was approved for release.
