South Texas grand jury indicts Cheney and Gonzales

ADVERTISEMENTS

A hat tip to Roger Hughes for this item:

McALLEN, Texas ? A South Texas grand jury has indicted Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on charges related to the alleged abuse of prisoners in Willacy County?s federal detention centers.

The indictment criticizes Cheney?s investment in the Vanguard Group, which holds interests in the private prison companies running the federal detention centers. It accuses Cheney of a conflict of interest and ?at least misdemeanor assaults? on detainees by working through the prison companies.

Gonzales is accused of using his position while in office to stop an investigation into abuses at the federal detention centers.
