These two pixies are not just a couple, light-in-the-loafers civilian legal twits. They are Marines first, "lawyers" second. They need to STFU and stop playing politics with GITMO.
William Shakespeare: "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."
Sounds like the good prof is muslim, so he could not possibly have an agenda, hmmm?
vaudine
"Lawyer" and "Marine" just don't go together....
...Semper fi.

(Voiceover) Twenty-three-year-old Marine Sergeant Heather Cerveny was sent to Guantanamo Bay in late September as a legal aid to a marine lawyer representing a detainee. She has come back, now, with a story of what she says is unchecked abuse by guards there.

None of them looked like they cared. None of them looked shocked by it.

(Voiceover) In a sworn affidavit filed with the Pentagon inspector general, Cerveny says, she met several navy prison guards at an on base club, where over drinks, they described, in detail, harsh, physical abuse of the detainees.

The one sailor specifically said, ‘I took the detainee by the head and smashed his head into the cell door.” Other ones specifically saying, ‘you know, today, that guy was annoying me. You know? I smacked him in the head.”

(Voiceover) The sergeant says the guards told her they worked at camps five and six. And that such beatings of detainees were common and justified.
SERGEANT HEATHER CERVENY (UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS)
I initially asked him, what consequences - you know, what happened for you doing this to him? And he said nothing.
When you want to get the straight scoop, there's nothing like a bunch of drunken sailors and Marines sitting around the club talking to a woman. I find it strange that they didn't bring up all of their MOHs and Purple Hearts. Or maybe they did. LOL!
Military discipline aside, paralegals who publicize aspects pertinent to a case in which their attorney is presently acting are unlikely to be paralegals very long.
Yeah, they're really mistreated.
Tell me, how many prisioners have been mutilated or beheaded at Gitmo?
They had reported this case for investigation. There was NO reason to take it to the press, other than to make the USA and the USMC look bad.
If I were their commander, Heather and her boss would be in the hospital suffering from having two new assholes chewed in them...and awaiting an insanity check for believing a bunch of drunk marines talking to a girl.
Must have stopped taking Murtha's calls.
