It's been called "the forgotten attack" but it's one of the worst terrorist attacks in U.S. history.
Eight years after the USS Cole was attacked by a motorboat packed with explosives, all of the six men convicted of the strike have escaped from prison, or been freed by Yemeni officials.
Seventeen sailors were killed and 40 more wounded in the strike, blamed on Usama bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
Jamal al-Badawi, who helped organize the Cole plot, has reportedly escaped from Yemeni prisons twice. He is supposedly back in jail now, but the Washington Post reported that he has been spotted at his home and is apparently able to come and go around town as he pleases.
Another Cole defendant, Fahd al-Quso, reportedly was freed last year.
Two others, described as main plotters, are being held in held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, out of reach of U.S. courts. One other defendant may or may not be in prison in Yemen and the other three others apparently were freed.
Most of those believed responsible were rounded up, put on trial, put in a Yemeni prison. Two years later, most of them tunneled out of prison.

Yemen is enemy territory and always has been .Their jails are a laugh and they can bribe the guards and leave anytime they choose.
Any time one of these critters gets too much press they have a way of turning up missing for good what with the Massad and half of the anti_terrorist outfits on Uncle Sam's payroll.
It doesn't pay to make too public an execution of these low_level critters as it causes the rest of them to fly the coop for awhile.
Better to slit their throats in a back alley in some Islamic ghetto,a few dollars in the right hands and they are gone !

'Zackly. It's idiotic to claim this shit is a 'Law enforcement' issue, in the modern sense. If it was 'Law enforcement' as the term was applied to pirates three hundred years ago - i.e. anyone who could catch them could hang them - then I might go for it, but not with what that term means today.
