A Benghazi attack suspect is in US custody
Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that Benghazi suspect, Zubayr al-Bakoush, has been captured and extradited to the United States. Al-Bakoush is suspected of taking part in the 2012 attack on the US Embassy in Benghazi, Libya. This attack resulted in the deaths of ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. The FBI captured al-Bakoush overseas and transferred him into US custody.
From Newsmax:
“This man will now face American justice on American soil,” Bondi said, adding that the defendant will face charges related to “murder, terrorism, arson, among others.”
Bondi emphasized that the families of the fallen Americans have waited more than a decade for accountability.
“We lost four American lives that day,” she said, naming Stevens, State Department official Sean Smith, and CIA contractors Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.
“We have never forgotten those heroes and we have never stopped seeking justice for that crime against our nation.”
Bondi also referenced former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s infamous comment during congressional testimony about Benghazi — “What difference, at this point, does it make?” — saying the new arrest underscores that justice still matters.
“It makes a difference to Donald Trump and to those families,” Bondi said.
Patel echoed the message, crediting Trump for giving federal law enforcement the resources to pursue terror suspects worldwide.
“President Trump has given us the full resources at the FBI across the interagency to deliver justice,” Patel said.
Patel described the Benghazi case as deeply personal, saying he worked on it earlier in his career as a prosecutor in the Justice Department’s national security division.
“We lost four Americans and can never, ever forget them,” Patel said. “We will not.”
Pirro said that an eight-count indictment charged Al-Bakoush with crimes including the murders of Stevens and Smith. It was unclear if Al-Bakoush had an attorney representing him.

This is good news, hopefully not just a distraction
Man, she is one ugly dude. Damn.
Nah…she’s FUGLY!
Wonder what lawer would be dumb enough to take him on as a client ?
Hina Shamsi? Right in her ballpark.
Defense Attorney: Your honor, the fact is that yes, my client was out for a walk one night, and he decided to kill some Americans. But at this point, what difference does it make?
Judge: Mr. Bernath, must I remind you one again to not interrupt instructions to the jury?
Hillary is The Butcher of Benghazi and she does not give a fuck about anyone other than herself Webb’s daughter.
Gotta wonder what Bill Clinton did to deserve the misery of remaining married to that depraved monster.
It’s gotta be karmic, one or both of them being punished for the sins of a past life.
Bill was no slouch in the depravity department. He lay with every willing woman and teenager within yodeling distance. God only knows what diseases he picked up swimming in Epstein’s pool. There isn’t enough chlorine in the world to make me jump into that vial of bacterium.
Justice will not truly be served until Obama and Hillary are indicted.
