"But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." ~ Declaration of Independence
The Last Iraqi in Guant?namo, Cleared Six Years Ago, Returns Home
Submitted by strike on Mon, 2009-06-15 16:00
?Colman was scathing about the way Guant?namo was run. In his 35-year career, he said, he had ?represented clients in the most dire legal and physical circumstances imaginable,? visiting maximum-security prisons and working for death row prisoners in Illinois and Georgia, but representing men held at Guant?namo had been the ?most depressing, difficult, frustrating experience of my legal career. Never have I seen the kind of disrespect for the attorney-client relationship as at Guant?namo.??
