Army Capt Verifies More Torture at Camps in Iraq

TIME: The US Army has launched a criminal investigation into new allegations of serious prisoner abuse in Iraq & Afghanistan made by a decorated former Capt in the Army's 82nd Airborne Division. The claims of the unnamed Capt are corroborated by statements of 2 sgts who served w/ him in the 82nd Airborne & the allegations form the basis of a report from Human Rights Watch. Senate sources say that the Capt has also reported his charges to 3 senior GOP senators: Bill Frist, John Warner & John McCain. A Senate GOP staffer familiar with both the Captain and his allegations told TIME he appeared "extremely credible."
