: Breaking Legal NewsMilitary court to review Abu Ghraib conviction
By (Breaking Legal News)
The U.S. military's highest court says it will review the conviction of an Army reservist who prosecutors said was the ringleader of detainee abuse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq.
Former Cpl. Charles Graner Jr. was sentenced in 2005 to 10 years in prison for his role in the scandal.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces in Washington said Tuesday it will consider whether the trial judge erred by refusing to let jurors see memos approving "enhanced interrogation tactics" for detainees.
Graner, of Uniontown, Pa., was accused of stacking naked prisoners in a human pyramid and ordering them to masturbate while other soldiers took photographs. He also allegedly knocked out a prisoner with a punch to the head.
