Pohl, while agreeing to hear pretrial testimony from 83-year-old Lee Hanson, who lost his son, daughter-in-law and toddler granddaughter aboard United Flight 175 in the terrorist attacks of 9/11, has rejected a bid that would allow members of the media to hear the testimony, reports Carol Rosenberg in the Miami Herald.
The five co-defendants will be permitted to watch the testimony in a closed court.
