LA TIMES: Soldiers sues over Guantanamo beating: MP vs the Pentagon |
|
So if this soldier was beaten so badly that he suffers from brain damage and seizures, what the hell are we doing to prisoners? http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-gitmo18jun18,0,5373171.story?coll=la-home-nation

1. No one has been disciplined or punished for the assault... |
|
...said Baker's lawyer, T. Bruce Simpson Jr.
Last June, a military spokesman said an internal investigation in February 2003 had concluded that no one was liable for Baker's injuries. He said training procedures at Guantanamo had been reviewed after the incident.
"While it is unfortunate that Spc. Baker was injured, the standards of professionalism we expect of our soldiers mandate that our training be as realistic as possible," the spokesman said.
Disgraceful conduct. Spc. Baker should sue for MILLIONS! :mad:

2. I read that earlier. I was too shocked to even respond. |
|
The guy was told to dress in the orange suit and be, basically, a test subject as a recalcitrant prisoner. These fuckers came in and nearly beat the guy to death.
The story is frightening.
