1. what safeguards are there for when the government sabotages it's own case?
"The disputed evidence concerned statements the guards gave to state department investigators, which they were told would not be used to bring a criminal case.

This limited immunity deal meant that prosecutors should have built their case against the men without using the statements."

3. Smells fishy to me. The prosecutors should
have known better unless someone was guiding them in order to help out Blackwater. It happened during the Bush administration and I would hold nothing past them. I have my old tin hat dusted off and am wearing it again.
