When we forwarded that information up to Brigade, 2 we got, in not so many terms, we were told that we weren't getting 3 the intelligence that they expected, and therefore, we must not be 4 conducting interrogations--enough interrogations to get the 5 intelligence. 6 Q. Is it fair to say based upon your observations that there 7 was significant pressure placed upon the 205th and yourself to get 8 information of an intelligence nature out of Abu Ghraib? 9 A. I'm sorry, I didn't hear the question, sir. 10 Q. I'm sorry, I'll try to restate it. Based upon your own 11 observations, was there significant pressure placed upon your 12 battalion and the 205th to obtain intelligence information out of Abu 13 Ghraib? 14 A. Yes, sir. 15 Q. Now, did there come a time when you received in August of 16 2003 an email out of CJTF which spoke to this, "The ?1 yes are coming 4404;)ag):e. 17 off, gentlemen, regarding these detainees. Colonel MI has made it 18 clear that we want these individuals broken." Did there come a time 19 when you received that? 20 A. Yes, sir. 21 Q. Could you tell the court what your reaction to that 22 document was? 490 018662 ACLU-RDI 1755 p.3 DOD-041841 1 A. Sir, if I may have a chance to review the document. 2 Q. Yes, we have it for you. I thought you had it. I believe 3 the document is available for you right there. [Document was 4 provided to the witness.] And if you'll turn to page two. 5 ATC: Just for the record, we're looking at Defense Exhibit D, is 6 that correct? 7 CDC: Yes, I'm sorry, Defense Exhibit D. 8 WIT: Okay, sir, can you restate the question? 9 Q. Okay, have you read it now? 10 A. Yes, I have. 11 Q. Firstly, let me ask you, did you take this message 12 seriously? 13 A. Sir, it was my opinion that CJTF didn't understand how 14 interrogations were conducted because many of the people that were in 15 CJTF-7 J2X staff had no HUMINT experience. I believe that they were 16 not aware of the Geneva Convention rules and may not understand what 17 the legal ramifications were for how we did interrogation$. It was 18 my opinion that they were attempting to get us to be more aggressive 19 in the interrogations, sir. Therefore, I took their request as--I 20 took their request, or that email as an indication that they wanted 21 us to do more in the booth, sir. 491 018663 ACLU-RDI 1755 p.4 DOD-041842 1 Q. I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you. Could you say those last 2 two words? 3 A. I was saying that they wanted us to be more aggressive in 4 the booth, a literal translation of [inaudible]. 5 Q. And do you have any sense of the number of persons who 6 received this document? 7 A. Without reviewing it, I know that the distro was primarily 8 members of the 205th MI Brigade, the 519th MI Battalion, Alpha 9 Company, 519th MI Battalion, as well as some members of the Divisions 10 and their G2. 11 Q. Your impression was what? What did they want out of this 12 document 13 ATC: Objection, Your Honor. 14 MJ: Grounds? 15 ATC: Calls for speculation. 16 MJ: Sustained. Don't answer that question. Next question. 17 Q. How did you interpret---- 18 MJ: MAW what difference does it make how he interpreted 19 it?

How he interprets the document suggests 2 how he'll conduct himself. 3 MJ: I mean, I've given you a great deal of leeway on the 4 subject. But I'm just trying to figure out, he's up at Camp 5 Speicher, and is it somehow how he interprets the document up at Camp 6 Speicher influence---- 7 CDC: I think so. 8 MJ: Well, I know you think so, because you're asking the 9 question. 10 CDC: Yes. 11 MJ: But help me to understand how this---- 12 CDC: Let me rephrase this so we'll end up with a better 13 question. Is that fair enough? 14 MJ: Fair enough. 15 Questions by the defense [continued]: 16 Q.

The photos depicted images of U.S. soldiers engaged in torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment.! Among other things, the photos documented the sexual abuse and humiliation of Iraqi detainees in the prison.' The photographs depict naked detainees, some of whom were forced to engage in sex acts or simulated sex acts.3 Sworn statements of the detainees at Abu Ghraib reveal a pattern of abuse and degradation, including "details of how they were sexually humiliated and assaulted, threatened with rape, t.

Introduction In January 2004, by leaking several photographs to the U.S. Army’s Criminal Investigation Command (CID), Joseph Darby, a Sergeant at Abu Ghraib Prison, first exposed the abuse that had been ongoing at the American detention facility in Iraq. The photographs, a majority of which were taken between October and December 2003, provide a snapshot of the systematic torture the United States committed during the war in Iraq. Initially shocking the public, the images triggered a variety of responses and interpretations some of which were critical and accusing, others, however, rather apologetic (Dauphinee 144). Detached from the photographers’ intentions, the images developed a life of their own: as legal evidence, as artwork and documentary imagery, and as iconic representations of the war on terror (Butler 956 + 964). On the one hand, some scholars, like Dora Apel, have argued that “rendering the images visible to the public begins their undoing [and] contributes to the resistance against the acts they represent” (96).

Photographs taken by soldiers in Abu Ghraib prison changed the war in Iraq and changed America’s image of itself. Yet, a central mystery remains. Did the notorious Abu Ghraib photographs constitute evidence of systematic abuse by the American military, or were they documenting the aberrant behavior of a few “bad apples”? We set out to examine the context of these photographs. Why were they taken? What was happening outside the frame? We talked directly to the soldiers who took the photographs and who were in the photographs. Who are these people? What were they thinking? Over two years of investigation, we amassed a million and a half words of interview transcript, thousands of pages of unredacted reports, and hundreds of photographs.

  • Prosecuting Abuses of Detainees in U.S. Counter- Terrorism Operations
    International Center for Transitional Justice CRIMINAL JUSTICE FOR CRIMINAL POLICY: Prosecuting Abuses of Detainees in U.S. Counter- terrorism Operations An ICTJ Policy Paper November 2009 Carolyn Patty Blum, Lisa Magarrell, Marieke Wierda Cover Image: Redacted page (52) from Counterterrorism Detention and Interrogation Activities (September 2001-October 2003), a May 2004 Special Review by the CIA’s Office of the Inspector General. Portions of that report have been declassified through litigation by the American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations under the Freedom of Information Act. The Bush administration released a few paragraphs and lines of the report in May 2008 and the Obama administration went considerably further in an August 2009 reclassification. Regardless, this page and many others, including all of the In- spector General’s recommendations, remain classified as of this writing. Ques- tions persist about the full scope of abuses under U.S. policies on rendition, de- tention and interrogation. ICTJ’s policy paper relies on declassified information and other reporting to make the case for a thorough criminal investigation of abuses in counterterrorism policy and operations. Such an investigation must include those parts of the “dark side” still hidden from public view.
