What option do prosecutors have when searching for charges to file against alleged terrorists?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prosecutors have the option of using existing statutes that were not necessarily created to target terrorists, but that can be applied to their actions. They can also wait for lawmakers to criminalize actions committed in furtherance of a criminal attack. Both options (a and c) therefore provide prosecutors with a range of tools to use in seeking justice against alleged terrorists. Creating a law for each terrorist action as it arises (option B) would be inefficient and impractical.
