![]() | Iraqi Abuse Scandal
taken from this article: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5816887/ new findings on who is culpable and more details as to what went on. on the site linked above you will find a video that i haven't watched yet, but the perpetrators are numbered. below i have cut and pasted a part of the article that explains in detail what each numbered person is guilty of doing. ------------------- In its report, the Army found: — Soldier No. 01, a medic, failed to report seeing “a human pyramid of naked Iraqi prisoners, all with sandbags on their heads,” when she was called to provide medical treatment. — Soldier No. 08, a dog handler from the 16th Military Police Brigade, “had an ongoing contest with Soldier 27, another dog handler, to scare detainees with their dogs in order to see who could make the detainees urinate and defecate first.” — Soldier No. 20, a medic, failed to report seeing a detainee struck in the leg with a stick where he had been shot. The detainee, it said, was kicked by Military Police Spec. Charles Graner, currently involved in hearings in Mannheim, Germany, ahead of his scheduled court-martial for abuse. — Soldier No. 25, an interrogator with the 321st Military Intelligence Battalion, “thought it was funny” to see detainees flee from dogs and failed to report prisoners handcuffed together in contorted positions, making it look as though they were having sex with each other. — Soldier No. 27, a dog handler from the 523rd Military Police Detachment, “led his dog into a cell with two juvenile detainees and let his dog ‘go nuts.’ The two juveniles were yelling and screaming with the youngest one hiding behind the oldest.” — Civilian No. 05, a contract interrogator, kept yanking a prisoner to the ground using handcuffs and told a soldier who admonished him for abuse and drinking alcohol at the prison, “I have been doing this for 20 years and I do not need a 20-year-old telling me how to do my job.” ------------------- |
