The New York Times today reported that Lt. Col. Steven L. Jordan, an Army reserve officer and former director of the Joint Interrogation Facility (JIF) at Abu Ghraib, is going to face several charges in relation to the ongoing abuse probe at the prison. According to the NYT story, those charges will include: Dereliction of Duty; Lying to Investigators and Conduct Unbecoming and Officer. All of those charges, especially the latter one, are serious charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). The possible penalties for Lt. Col. Jordan if he is found guilty range from a letter of reprimand to incarceration and a bad conduct discharge with loss of all benefits. It is serious stuff, no doubt about it.

And it’s about time.

If the charges are actually filed, Jordan would become the first commissioned officer charged in the Abu Ghraib case. In fact, he would be the only commissioned officer charged from the detainee abuse investigations at either Abu Ghraib or GITMO. And it has only taken 2/12 years to get to this point. The wheels of injustice sure spin very slowly at the Pentagon, don’t they?
