DOD043615-DOD043621	Chronology of Guard / Detainee Issues			Appears to be a visit to the facility where an observer takes notes. "Lost keys are an endemic problem for the guards. This is the 4th day in a row where processing was delayed due to lost keys." (DOD043615) 01/10/02: "Detainee [redacted] has broken finger due to rough handling by guards. Guard states that detainee was "giving them a hard time." (In cuffs and shackles?)" (DOD043616 ). 01/11/02: "Detainee 374 had a deep cut and swelling of right hand, cuts and bruises on face, cuts on ankles.. . he's around 70 years old, I doubt that he gave them much trouble."

(DOD043619-20). 02/01/02: During interrogation, MP did not loosen detainee's ankle cuffs when asked to do so, stating they were not tight. When asked again, SPC used unnecessary force, pulling detainee's feet out from under him by the ankle chains, stepping on his thigh while loosening the cuffs, then kicking him in the feet when finished. Later, the MP NCOIC SSG barged into the booth demanding to know the problem. Detainee asked not to make a fuss over his treatment for fear of further mistreatment. (DOD043620) 02/04/02: Detainee states that whe he was praying the guards asked him a question and when he did not answer, because he was praying, he was punished with physical training. (DOD043620) Medic is unresponsive to detainees' needs and appears callous. DOD043620. Great deal of disorganization in moving detainees from cells to interrogation rooms.
DOD043622-DOD043623	Sworn statement of interrogator, Task Force 202 Military Intelligence Battalion	1/2/2002		On 01/02/02 noticed detainee in joint interrogation facility with cuts and bruises and complaining of pain and soreness.

"It is quite apparent that between my initial meet and 01FEB02 meet that something had happened to MP number [Redacted]'s face.
DOD043624-DOD043625	Sworn statement of U.S. personnel, 202 Military Intelligence	2/11/2002		On 02/11/02 declarant noticed abuse. During a medical exam, instead of a medical personnel, one of the MPs conducted an anal probe on detainee. "He was a large man. Without warning the EPW [Enemy Prisoner of War], and in a cruel way he pushed both his fingers into the EPW's anus. This caused the EPW to scream and fall to the ground violently. His leg irons, which I supposed were not locked, came open by force of his reaction."
DOD043626-DOD043627	Sworn Statement of U.S. personnel			Detainee said he was hit on the head with large object, which could be the butt of a rifle. Detainee had a bump on his head.

He was later assaulted by two or three guards the following nights. Same incident as DOD043642.
DOD043634-DOD-043635	Sworn statement of interrogator	2/14/2002		Interrogator's sworn statement that he noticed detainee's breathing was heavy and he appeared disoriented.

When reported to the NCOIC [Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge] of the shift, was told "He told me that our safety and the safety of the MP's [Military Police] was his first concern and that if the detainee is resisting, that certain force is necessary." Person reported the incident to supervisors. While on translator duty with the medic, this person saw detainees who had been beaten. "While explaining to the doctor the situation, a female medic, SPC [Redacted], and a male doctor, CPT [Redacted] both made comments to the effect that they, the detainees, wouldn't hurt if they didn't get hit and to tell them not to get hit again. These two individuals did not want to give pain medicine to these particular detainees." Detainees also complained of dislocated shoulders because of the manner in which they were moved while cuffed. Person reported this to supervisors. Detainee who was trying to escape was treated badly by escorts. His hood was twisted at the nape of the neck until his facial features could be distinguished and his nose squished. He was cuffed and pulled along at a fast rate of speed. When he tripped over a pile of rubbish, his shackle came undone and he was thrown on the floor until his shackle could be fixed. "I did not mention this treatment to higher, as I felt their response would justify the MP's behavior since the detainee was trying to escape, just as we are taught to do." Same statement as DOD043644.
DOD043638-043639	Sworn Statement of interrogator, Task Force 202	1/3/2002	2/13/2002	Translator tells of incident during interrogation. "[We] took a break to regroup … While we were out of the booth, several special forces members entered the booth. … [we] finished the break and went back to continue the interrogation. When we entered the booth, we found the special forces members all crouched around the prisoner. They were blowing cigarette smoke in his face. The prisoner was extremely upset. It took a long time to calm him down and find out what had happened. .. The prisoner was extremely upset. He said that they had hit him told him that he was going to die, blew smoke in his face and had shocked him with some kind of device. He used the term "electricity." Appears to be the same incident as DOD-043628-DOD-043629.

Investigation established probable cause to believe CPL Aguilar committed the offenses of Aggravated Assault and Failure to Obey an Order when he took aim and discharged his weapon in the direction of Master [Redacted] and probable cause to believe CPL [redacted] committed the offense of False Official Statement when he provided his command with a Sworn Statement he knew to be false.

Statements also show that Aguilar reported this incident as an accidental discharge.
DOD044031-DOD044140	Records of Criminal Investigation Command Investigation. 00223-2004-CID259-80257	Nov-03		Investigation of abuse of a detainee by a linguist hired by Titan Corporation during an interrogation in Karbala, Iraq. Investigation established that there was insufficient evident to prove or disprove listed offenses when he, Mr. [Redacted], struck a detainee across the face during an investigation. Accused was located in Egypt at the time of investigation and attempts to coordinate a trip to question him were unsuccessful, so he was only interviewed through phone and email. Titan interrogator's sworn statement says that when he learned that a linguist had beat an Iraqi detainee while in custody, he informed his superior whose reaction was "Maybe the unit won't report the incident." Interrogator further relates that after reporting the incident, his career took a "nosedive" and that he was fired from his position in An Najaf and Karbala. (DOD0440398-9). Titan interpreter's sworn statement that he saw the accused interpreter open-hand strike a detainee who was sitting on the floor with a sandbag over his head and his hands tied behind his head.

DOD044418-DOD044496	Records of CID Investigation 0213-2004-CID259-80520		6/17/2005	Investigation into abuse of detainee who was captured on 01/04/04, detained by members of Task Force 6-26 in Tikrit and taken to BIAP where he describes an interrogation where he was forced by the interpreter to take off all his clothes, made to walk into walls with a box over his head and something wet around his neck; put in front of an air conditioner while water was poured on him to keep him wet; made to hold MRE boxes and told to push them up to the ceiling; punched in the back and shoulder until he passed out; dragged around the room; made to lay on the floor on his stomach with an MRE box on his forearms and his chin on the box so that his stomach was not touching the floor, and put in other uncomfortable and painful positions which caused him to vomit. Investigators were unable to locate and interview peronnel involved or any medical files relating to detainee. Investigation found there was no probable cause to believe the offenses occurred as alleged; therefore, they are unfounded. A memorandum from CID Assistant Operations Officer to the Commander of CID states that he is unable to thoroughly investigate suspects and witnesses because of their involvement in the Special Access Program (SAP) and/or the security classification of the unit they were assigned to during the offense. (DOD04489). A memorandum states that "An Information Report was provided to this office which stated fake names were used by the 6-26 members. The only names identified by this investigation were determined to be fake names utilized by the capturing soldiers; however, the abuse allegedly occurred during the interrogation of the detainee. The 6-26 CID agent related that the capturing soldiers would not know who the interrogators were. 6-26 also had a major computer malfunction which resulted in them losing 70 percent of their files; therefore they can't find the cases we need to review. This investigation meets the necessary requirements and does not need to be reopened. Hell, even if we reopened it we wouldn't get anymore information than we already have." (DOD044496).
DOD044497-DOD044744	Records of CID Investigation 0396-2004-CID259-80377			Investigation into abuse of detainee upon capture and on a subsequent occasion in Baghdad.

States that he was beaten over 8 days with wooden sticks, a cable, the butt stocks of AK-47s and hands and feet. Photographs were taken of his injuries. (DOD044534-5).
DOD044745-DOD044780	HUMINT Legal Principles, U.S. Army Intelligence Center and Fort Huachuca		3/18/2004	Instructions for a course entitled "HUMINT Intelligence Collector." Discusses intelligence oversight and AR 381-10 procedures. "A special activity is one conducted in support of national foreign policy objectives abroad. These activities are planned and executed so that the role of the US Government is not apparent or acknowledged publicly ... Examples of special activities would include the movie Clear and Present Danger - inserting drug interdiction troops into Columbia because these soldiers could not be indetified as a United States asset." "AR 381-10 provides procedures for the collection, retention and dissemination of information on US persons by intelligence components performing intelligence activities. .. This regulation should really be viewed as 'enabling' intelligence components to do their job, not restricting what they do." (DOD044750). "What is the most important consideration when determining whether you can collect US person information? -- your mission." (DOD044761). "What happens if you are wrong (violate AR 381-10)? -- if it is just a violation of 381-10 and not a violation of other regulations/statutes, you will probably be hit with corrective training (which is bad enough!). If it violates other statutes - it can lead to military justice action." (DOD044761).

"Fundamental issues remain length of detention (we're getting better; he seemed pleased), property control and claims, and alleged abuses ..

Specifically one man stated he was punched and urinated on by a soldier, another that he was stripped naked with a bag on his head ... [Regarding abuse during interrogation] - This aspect will continue to cause us problems, as some of our interrogation techniques aren't real defensible given the Abu Ghraib fallout. Examples include application of cold water or ice, loud music, sleep deprivation, and being placed in a 'metal box' (CONEX). More to the point, I have seen media reporting -- not formal message traffic-- that MG Miller has asked for and received restrictions on these techniques from LTG Sanchez and that they now require GO authorization (also inlcludes the use of 'stress positions'). We are checking this, but we will continue to be asked about these practices as long as the Committee visits, and I think we need to weight their relative worth."

In turn, soldiers directed grenades (from an MK-19) an M-16 fire at civilians. All of the civilians were unarmed and had not engaged in a hostile act or demonstrated a hostile intent although a single shot was heard from an area approximately 90-degrees from the soldiers and 45-degrees from the house. Several civilians were injured. One appeared to have had his arm severed. Maltreatment of detainees: on at least one occasion, unit members placed detainees on the top of a Humvee and between the brush guard and hood and drove the vehicles with the detainees in this position. PFC [Redacted] was also told of soldiers in Section A who severely beat a detainee. Memo recommends forwarding information so a prompt investigation can be conducted.

Detainee was in an isolation cell. The appointed guard saw the detainee touching the concertina wire, assumed he was trying to escape and fired his weapon, hitting the prisoner in the arm and chest, killing him. Detainee was handcuffed with plastic "flexicuffs" at the time he was shot. Accused guard stated that deceased detainee had been trying to talk to other detainee and fiddling with his handcuffs. "When I turned around the prisoner was standing past the doorway touching the wire. When I saw this it was apparent to me that the prisoner was trying to escape. I was across the room and I had no idea what devious intent the prisoner had . I raised my weapon and shot the prisoner." (DOD044907-8). Statement of another soldier who was on guard duty that night satates, "We were instructed the day before on the rules for the general population prisoners and the detainee in solitare which were if any of them try to escape shot them. The briefing was done by 1st Lt. [Redacted]. The two prisoners in solitare were instructed to face the wall sitting down, to not stand up without being told to and to not approach the wire or they would be shot." (DOD044927). Duplicate and additional documents about this incident are at DOD043575-DOD043580; DOD044863; and DOD044869-DOD044871. Brother of deceased who was in cell next to him when shooting happened said in a sworn statement that the guard who shot his brother had been kicking the case and yelling and talking to him, but he could not understand and kicking the door, keeping them awake the whole night. (DOD044935). Medics had told guards that deceased detainee should be allowed to walk around his cell sometimes to relieve joint pain. (DOD044950-1). A soldier (PFC) states in sworn statement that they are "briefed to use minimal force as possible, but whatever the situation requires" and that while he doesn't know the accused soldier well, that the soldier "Yells a lot and has been warned for it. It wouldn't surprise me if he did other harmful things on his guard shift." Also states that "The guards from D..04ESB are too inexperienced to take on the responsibilities of EPW [Enemy Prisoner of War] guard. They seem a little hostile and confused about the consequences of some of their actions. Not all of them, just a couple . . They beat on the cages yell all the time and other small actions that are not needed all the time." (DOD044964-5. Action by appointing authority Raymond T. Odierno: "Bde [Brigade] Commander needs to ensure every leader is familiar with rights of detainees and discuss in general what is considered appropriate handling of detainees." (DOD044982).
DOD044984-DOD045029	Documents of AR 15-6 Investigation into abuse			Investigation into (1) whether SFC [Redacted] ordered soldiers to fire an MK-19 on unarmed civilians and whether civilians were wounded or killed in the incident; (2) whether members of BRT, 2nd Brigade placed detainees on top of a Humvee, between brushguard and hood during transportation to Brigade holding area; (3) whether members of BRT, 2d Brigade stole property from the homes of Iraqi citizens and the property of detainees. Findings: (1) allegation is unsubstantiated; (2) No proof that allegation is true; (3) uncorroborated. Soldier's statement says that on a mission, the platoon decided to set up an ambush and kill a civilian who had a weapon instead of driving up to him and taking the weapon, as has been standard practice for the platoon. The platoon waited until the civilian was next to the vehicle and opened fire. The civilian ran away and took cover in a field. "After the man ran into the field for cover we waitied close to a minute and there was never any fire returned. That's when my [Platoon Sergeant] told his gunner to spray the field with M-19 rounds... After the M-19 explosions all you heard was women and children screaming." The gunner said he saw no weapons in the house nearby. When a single shot cam from a distance of well over 500 meters away, the Platoon Sergeant said "F*** it, and light them up. His gunner shot about 304 M-19 rounds into the front yard and everyone else shot M-16s... 2 men were injured. One of them had his arm half blown off ... Finally a SUV drove by and loaded a bunch of injured people in it and drove off. And so did we looking for more people to kill. The R.O.E. [Rules of Engagement] for us over there was to engage and capture the enemy, seize all weapons, and give medical attention to anyone hurt. The R.O.E. was not followed because there were no ene[mies] or weapons." (DOD044988-90). Soldier recounts putting detainees on Humvees. "We would also take POWs and there wasn't anyone to come pick him up so we would put the POW on top of the HumV with the gunner until one tryed to throw up. After that we would hog tie them and stuff them in between the hood and the brush guard of the HumV. I asked at least tie his leg to the brush guard so he don't fall off and my NCO would say who cares, if he falls off we just ran him over and one less one to worry about." (DOD044991). (Other soldiers confirm that detainees were put on top of Humvee to transport them, but not between brush guard and hood.) Soldier states they would steal money and items from Iraqis' houses. (DOD044991). "They would drive down the road and see a car pull into a nice house and say the car was running from them to search the house and see what they could get." (DOD044991). Soldier states that a unit called Section A of the Platoon "lost control on a Iraqi and beat him half to death bad enough that the whole hood of the HumV was covered in blood." (DOD044991). Gunner confirms in sworn statement that Platoon leader ordered him to fire into field but did not fire at the civilians. (DOD044996). Another platoon member confirmed shots fired into the field and near house and injured civilians. (DOD044998).
DOD045030-045031			6/5/2002	An FBI agent observed improper tactics in the handling of a detainee in the interrogation room at Camp Delta. Saw detainee on his knees rubbing a cramp out of his leg while the DHS interrogator engaged him in questioning. The analyst in the observation room with the FBI agent was laughing. The FBI officer cautioned the analyst and interrogator on the fact that this conduct was inappropriate and could lead to a complaint from the Red Cross, at least. Another incident occurred in which the FBI agent observed a detainee bent over with his head on a table because he had been required to stand while still shacked to the deck. The author of the memo and the FBI agent both agreed tha this was a matter of education, training and closer supervision of interrogators. As a follow up, all the CITF and FBI agents were advised that detainees would not be caused to stand in the interview room.

The detainees, about 100 of them, were then forced into what appears to be a metal shipping container with no windows and only small holes in the top for ventilation. The container was then closed. People inside began to scream and bang on the outside of the container, but no one opened it. The detainee blacked out from the lack of air and when he woke there were what appeared to be bullet holes on the wall of the container, he had a "grazing type wound" on his right elbow, and some detainees were dead. The detainees were in the container for about 24 hours with no air or water. The detainee believes that only about 20 detainees survived. The dead were put into a big hole and buried. He also heard that some of the men who were took weak to get out of the container on their own were also put into the hole. It seems the container traveled from Mazar-e-Sharif to Sabergaan jail.

DOD045198-045201	After Action Report (AAR) - Preliminary Investigation into the death of a Detainee at Geresch Forward Operating base, Helmand Province, Afghanistan			US personnel captured an Afghani male, 25-27 years of age on or about 11/04/03. When processed by USSF medical staff, he had several bruises to his hips, groin and buttocks area (some severe to minor) and numerous burns to his chest "(which is a known interview/interrogation 'technique' used by the local Afghanistan Militia Forces.)" On November 6, 2003, detainee was guarded by AMF security force at Geresch FOB with one other detainee. The AMF Security guard left the detainment area, and when he returned he discovered the detainee laying in a supine position, wrapped in a wool blanket in the center of the detainee area. It was determined that he was deceased. Interviews were conducted. A Staff Sergeant said it was not unusual to see detainees released to USSF with bruises to hips, groin and buttocks. The Staff Sergeant described these injuries as a "normal interview/interrogation method used by local AMF, that discovery was always determined by medical personnel and never reported by detainee... this was due to a cultural difference .. showing your buttocks to other pesonnel (especially males) was offensive and embarassing to the detainee, and was also considered a sign of weakness." A Sergeant First Class said he could provide photographs of prior detainees with similiar injuries when initially processed and photographed by the SF medics. ACLU has previously released this autopsy at DOD003171 - DOD3177; DOD003298 , available at http://action.aclu.org/torturefoia/released/102405/3171.pdf and http://action.aclu.org/torturefoia/released/102405/3296.pdf.

Describes interrogation techniques: Does not use the "Safety Position" in the MI Booth; "Fear Up" includes disrespect for the Koran, throwing a chain inside the room; spotlights in a room; loud music; telling the detainee he's going to Guantanamo; raise the tone of voice of the interrogator or interpreter. This is all done under the supervision of the MP guard. Describes "giv[ing] light and sound for many days" and using females as an approach. "The process of interrogation is to degrade a PUC. We do not degrade a PUC for the sole purpose of degrading." States that in September 2003, instructors from Fort Huachuca went there to teach about interrogations. "Interrogations are professional and monitored. We have a problem that we are so restricted that we cannot use techniques to get intelligence from PUCs and that we are ineffective."

"NCOICs have not been provided formal training in the handling and care of Persons Control. All OICs and NCOICs have learned by trial and error." (DOD045283); "All OICs and NCOICs understand that they will not let Other Government Agencies use their Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTP) in the US Army facility."

The majority of units stated that the law of land warfare training they received was classroom briefing and not hands-on training.

(DOD045283); "Army doctrine simply does not exist. We do not afford PUCs or Detainees with the privileges associated with Enemy of Prisoner of War status. We do not afford them the entire privileges associated with the Geneva Conventions." (DOD045284); "In combat environment, Soldiers were left to develop their own PUC procedures ... Soldiers for the most part did what they thought was right based on their own moral values." (DOD045284).
