60 minutes. Could it have been stopped?

Description

A month before September 11th, the FBI hauled in a French citizen, Zacarias Moussaoui. He's now in jail-- the only person charged in the attacks. Prosecutors call him 'the 20th hijacker.' The FBI didn't search Moussaoui's things because it says it didn't have enough evidence for a search warrant. Critical evidence was in the hands of French intelligence. The FBI says that if that evidence exists, the Bureau never received it. Scott Pelley reports.
