Abu Ghraib Report to Fault Senior Commanders
The Army investigation report on the abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison is about to be released. It finds that 24 senior commanders are at fault for negligently supervision--but that they did not order the abuse.
In addition to the military intelligence personnel who are a key focus of the investigation report, the Army found that military medical personnel became aware of abuse at Abu Ghraib while treating injured prisoners but failed to report it to their command superiors....The New York Times, which first reported the finding on the medical personnel, said in its Thursday editions that it obtained medical records showing that medics had been in the area of the prison where the abuse occurred several times to treat suspicious wounds.
