It appears that Stansell is the one going after Betancourt.

"The three Americans take turns narrating their experiences in the 457-page chronicle. The other two agree with Stansell on most everything, but don't always see eye-to-eye with him on Betancourt. In the book and in phone interviews with the AP, the two said they hold no grudges, even though conflicts were frequent among hostages during their captivity."
