Catherine Herridge @C__Herridge - Video: GUANTANAMO BAY: 2000 Terrorist Attack on USS COLE Finally Gets Trial Date
26 years ago, Al-Qaeda suicide bombers struck the USS Cole off the coast of Yemen; killing 17 sailors and injuring nearly 40 others.
A trial date has finally been scheduled for October.
Most of the USS COLE dead were junior enlisted sailors in their late teens or early 20s.
The families have waited for justice longer than their sons were alive.
We met USS Cole survivors, retired Master Chief Paul Abney and retired Petty Officer Kathie Lopez as part of our 2025 investigation at Guantanamo Bay.

GUANTANAMO BAY: THE COST OF DELAYED JUSTICE
Every Sunday, Until The 25th Anniversary, I Will Post Investigative Content About The Untold Stories of 9/11.
In Part 2, I investigate the cost of delayed justice.
Only recently has a trial date been scheduled for the 9/11 case at Guantanamo Bay -- June 2028.
But the date could slide over disputed evidence from CIA interrogations that included waterboarding.
I’ve known mothers and fathers who lost adult children in the terrorist attacks and died before seeing a trial in a military or federal court.
Beyond the human cost, there is the extraordinary bill paid by US taxpayers for housing and prosecuting the Al-Qaeda defendants, as revealed in our 2025 investigation.
