Time has a brief story, getting it on the record in case it explodes before next week.
In a Feb. 21 statement to Taguba, Lieut. Colonel Steven L. Jordan, former head of the Abu Ghraib interrogation center, said he had received reports “that there were members of the MI [Military Intelligence] community that had come over and done a late-night interrogation of two female detainees” last October. According to a statement by Jordan’s boss, Colonel Thomas Pappas, three interrogators were later cited for violations of military law in their handling of the two females, ages 17 and 18. Senate Armed Services Committee investigators are probing whether the two women were sexually abused. The Pentagon declined to comment.
