Newburgh NY begs to host terror trial |
|
Newburgh Mayor Nicky Valentine wants the 9-11-01 terror trial to be held in Newburgh NY. All that Newburgh is asking for is some help ensuring security.
We just redid our courthouse. Time to use it..

West Point is 16 miles away.
Benedict Arnold launched his conspiracy from Newburgh. Also, George Washington denied the crown here (this event is known as The Newburgh Conspiracy). Washington's Headquarters (aka The Hasbrouck House) is located in Newburgh.

Unless your name is Michele Reggero, Probably not.
