: TalkLeftACLU: CIA Admits Destruction of 92 Interrogation Tapes
By Jeralyn
The ACLU has been engaged in a long lawsuit seeking to obtain videotapes of CIA interrogations of detainees abroad. Today the Government filed a letter with the court acknowledging that 92 interrogation tapes were destroyed.
"This letter provides further evidence for holding the CIA in contempt of court. The large number of videotapes destroyed confirms that the agency engaged in a systemic attempt to hide evidence of its illegal interrogations and to evade the court's order. Our contempt motion has been pending in court for over a year now – it is time to hold the CIA accountable for its flagrant disregard for the rule of law."
A copy of the letter is here (pdf). An AP report is here.
