A Prisoner Of Panic After 9/11: "On the evening of Sept. 11, Benatta said, officers walked into his cell and asked about his military background and the false identification papers he allegedly carried with him. Within hours, he was on his way to a holding cell in upstate New York, where an FBI agent showed him a photo of the World Trade Center and told him of the attack.
'The agent warned that if I say I have no connection with this terrorism, I will spend the rest of my life in prison,' Benatta recalled. 'I thought they would offer me to the American people as the one who did this attack. I thought my life was done.'"
