One of the men in the Abu Ghraib photos attempted to blackmail the government in exchange for a plea bargain. He didn’t get his lighter sentence so he was the 2004 source of the most famous leaked photos.
Have to wonder if any of those in the photos were “fragging” the troops with this as a form of entrapment. No one should do these deeds. But perhaps there was a bigger goal in mind and thus a reason to take pictures and document the abuse.
It seems crazy to me that they are allowed to have private cameras in places like that, altho I suppose in this day and age it would be virtually impossible to stop it.
