"This is the second significant error by the government affecting the constitutional rights of this defendant and more importantly the integrity of the criminal justice system of the United States in the context of a death case," Brinkema told lawyers outside the presence of the jury.

Is Moussaoui a citizen of the US? If not, how does he come by "constitutional rights"?

Inquiring minds would like to know.

If I recall correctly, he is not a citizen. However, he is being tried in our civilian courts and is therefore being accorded the same rights as other defendants. (Unfortunately.)
