It looks from hints that intelligence gathered from detainees, likely at Gitmo, led to OBL.
CNN saying intel was that the mansion was very suspicious:
1. Million dollar mansion with no internet and telephone
2. Residents burned their trash instead of putting it out for collection.
3. U.S. had interest in the couriers entering/exiting the mansion.
Sounds like some really good HUMINT led to this raid.
God Bless our fighting forces.
