/PRNewswire/ -- Parker Waichman LLP, a national law firm dedicated
to helping victims and families of victims impacted by the
September 11th terrorist attacks,
commends Defense Secretary Lloyd
Austin's decision to revoke the plea deals for the accused
plotters of the 9/11 attacks. This reversal marks a significant
step towards justice for the families and victims affected by this
tragic event.
Jerrold S. Parker, founding
attorney of Parker Waichman LLP, expressed his deep respect for the
decision, emphasizing its importance in honoring the memory of
those lost and providing closure for their families. "The decision
to revoke these plea deals is a just and honorable action that

a significant step in ensuring that those responsible for the
horrific attacks on September 11,
2001, face the consequences of their actions," said
Parker.

affected families and joins them in their call for a swift trial
date.
Kathy Vigiano, widow of NYPD
Detective Joseph Vigiano and
sister-in-law to FDNY firefighter John
Vigiano, both of whom were killed on 9/11, expressed relief
and hope upon hearing the news. "We are pleased that Secretary of
Defense Lloyd Austin rescinded the
inappropriate plea deal and hope that long-overdue justice will be
served for our family and others who have suffered," she
stated.
The sentiments of the victims' families resonate with Parker
Waichman LLP's ongoing mission to provide unwavering support and
advocacy for those impacted by the 9/11 attacks. "Justice must be
served," said Parker. "The victims, their families, and all
Americans deserve to see those responsible held accountable. This
decision restores faith in our justice system and underscores the
nation's commitment to upholding the principles of justice and
accountability."
Parker Waichman LLP is pleased that the administration agreed
with our firm's position that the deal was wrong and that the

justice for the victims. This decision reinforces the importance of
accountability and ensures that the responsible parties face the
