Sloppy's Journal: Somebody's Watching

Three British soldiers are on trial for abuse of prisoners. It's a different set of photos than what I've seen before, I guess a different incident from the more infamous case. What I found interesting, is what Jim Lehrer said at the end of the summary: "The case came to light when one soldier returned home and had some film developed. The photo lab spotted the images of abuse, and alerted police." Remember folks: use a digital camera (or polaroid, if you're old-fashioned) for your criminal momentos.

If you must take pictures, use a digital. Better yet, develop an eidetic memory.

Idiots.

DISCLAIMER: and asshats, but that goes without saying.

Idiots.

Their current excuse to the court martial provides further prove in case it's needed. Not quite "only following orders", they're going with "we followed an illegal order earlier, so that makes doing illegal things of our own accord later on OK". I think we can all guess how far that one's going to get them!

I tried googling for the incident, but I can't seem to find anything. Can you give a url? Thanks.

Sorry, this was on TV news, and I don't really know any more about it (from which to pick search terms) than what I posted.

Thank-you very much for looking. Also BTW I like that Biglumber - key signing coordination site [biglumber.com] that you have listed. I'm listed [biglumber.com] in there now.

And for goodness sake, don't be in the picture.
