Christmas Day Bomber Wants Former Attorney's Files
A Nigerian charged with trying to blow up a Detroit-bound airliner on Christmas Day 2009 wants the file held by his former defense lawyers.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab says he believes the file contains information from experts who don't believe he was capable of destroying Northwest Airlines Flight 253 from Amsterdam.
Abdulmutallab is charged with trying to blow up a plane with about 300 people aboard by igniting an explosive in his underwear.
Passengers saw flames and quickly subdued him.
