I’m sure his defense attorney from Perkins Coie will do just that!
Hopefully, he will describe the complex “plan” hatched by the Clinton State Department to “kidnap” Ambassador Stevens, so he could then be “exchanged” for the “blind Sheik”.
It’s too bad no one told Stevens about his “role” in that scheme.

In 2012 I followed the Libyan situation and overthrow of Ghadaffi on a daily basis, including a number of comments at FR. Below are several links which have been written after the period when I was observing daily. The Wiki article is very detailed, and the Responsibility section covers a lot of territory. For one, bin Laden’s deputy, Zwahiri scheduled this attack to avenge our killing al Libi and to occur on the 9/11 anniversary. He was also involved in releasing the tape which was originally blamed for the attack. On 9/11 Clinton was busy with about 20 embassy demonstrations worldwide, some definitely sparked by the tape. It appears that the Benghazi compound was secretly part of a CIA operation, not the State Department. Amb, Stevens was there for a number of months before the fighting started, was he CIA or just an adventurous and capable young man who made a bad calculation. We may never know the details on that.
The second link covers this in some detail. The third link has photos of the Benghazi compound and attack. I did not find the best photos of the surrounding walls which seemed inadequate to me at the time and were NOT covered with concertina wire. The fourth link contains information about the recent capture of one of the attack leaders, but also points out that THE leader was captured in 2014 and is/was currently on trial in the US when this article was written. Perhaps you will find the real answer to your question here.
