American Civil Liberties Union : Federal Court Orders Government to Turn Over Videos and Photos Showing Detainee Abuse: "A federal judge has ordered the Defense Department to turn over dozens of photographs and four movies depicting detainee abuse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq as part of an ongoing lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union.
'These images may be ugly and shocking, but they depict how the torture was more than the actions of a few rogue soldiers,' said Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director of the ACLU. 'The American public deserves to know what is being done in our name. Perhaps after these and other photos are forced into the light of day, the government will at long last appoint an outside special counsel to investigate the torture and abuse of detainees.' "
Ugh.
