Chances are This Detainee Never Was a "Terrorist".....
I wonder what will happen to his son....



An Iraqi detainee embraces his son at the end of an hour of visitation inside the Abu Ghraib prison west of Baghdad. New documents have disclosed previously unpublicized allegations of prisoner abuse in Iraq (news - web sites) and Afghanistan (news - web sites), including mock executions and beatings, that were investigated by the US Army but in some cases dismissed for lack of evidence.(AFP/File/Cris Bouroncle)

1. ...dismissed for for lack of evidence...
The detainee died, therefore could not testify as to what happen to him while in Abu Ghraib.
