Zacarias Moussaoui may be put to death for his role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people, a jury found Monday. The jury will consider in a second penalty phase whether to recommend death or life imprisonment for the Al Qaeda devotee.

The sentencing phase for Moussaoui, who pleaded guilty last year to six terror-related conspiracy charges, will involve the testimony of victims’ family members and is expected to be protracted and highly emotional. U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema will consider the jury’s recommendation and ultimately decide whether Moussaoui will be executed or spend the rest of his life in a federal prison.
