New York personal injury lawyer, J.C. Reiter, experienced in lawsuits involving victims of terrorist attacks is stunned by the release of Abdelbesset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi. The 57 year-old Libyan terrorist who was convicted of murdering 270 people in the Lockerbie bombing in 1988 was sent home on a plane to Libya on Thursday, August 20, 2009. As reported by CNN, Scottish Justice Secretary MacAskill ordered the release of al Megrahi in a display of compassion for a man who has terminal prostate cancer and is suspected to die within three months.
Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up over Lockerbie, a Scottish town, just days before Christmas in 1988 killing all 259 passengers, pilots, and crew members on board plus 11 Scotsmen on the ground. Leading New York mass disaster attorney, J.C. Reiter, has first hand experience in lawsuits representing families of victims of mass disasters and terrorist attacks. The Law Firm of Jonathan C. Reiter has handled terrorism cases in the United States and foreign countries and says the victims of the Pan Am bombing were not allowed to return home to their loved ones before they were murdered on that tragic day in 1988. The Lockerbie commercial airline bombing is considered to be the worst terrorist attack ever committed on UK soil. Many of the passengers killed on the Pan Am flight were Americans, and the United States government issued a statement saying Megrahi should be required to serve his sentence in the Scotland prison.
New York mass disaster attorney, Reiter, was deeply involved representing the families of the World Trade Center terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. A New York resident with his office located in Manhattan he witnessed first hand the devastation of the worst terrorist atrocity on U.S. soil. Mr. Reiter and his highly skilled and compassionate legal team understand the complexities involved in handling these types of serious cases. Reiter’s firm is experienced in helping victims and families recover fair and just compensation in the event of a mass disaster or terrorist attack. Mr. Reiter understands the need for compassion in our violent society but believes it should be exercised in the favor of the victims and their grieving families over the perpetrators of these heinous crimes.
