Once confidential FBI 302 memo from March 5th, 1996 four ½ months before the crash of TWA 800 in which Yousef tells Scarpa Jr. in an FBI sting at the M.C.C. — federal jail in Lower Manhattan — that during his upcoming trial for the “Bojinka” plot to smuggle bombs onto U.S.-bound airliners he would have his cohorts “blow up a plane” in order to get a mistrial.
The morning after the crash of TWA 800 on July 17th, 1996 Yousef did just that; but Judge Kevin Duffy turned him down.
