Biden: NYC Estimates For 9/11 Trial Exaggerated
NEW YORK (CBS) ?
It's a sign of just how angry the White House is at having its plans to hold terror trials in New York City thwarted.
Vice President Joe Biden took a swing at Mayor Michael Bloomberg,
accusing him of inflating estimates of the trial's security costs.
Imaging telling Mayor Bloomberg he doesn't know how to count? Well,
that's just what Vice President Biden did, charging that the mayor and
NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly exaggerated the cost of trying Khalid
Sheikh Mohammed and his terror pals in Manhattan.
Both Mayor Bloomberg and Commissioner Kelly put the estimate at $200
million a year for five years, saying it would be an expensive
proposition for the City.
Biden, however, disputes the numbers.
