"Terrorism Interrogators Immune From Prosecution, '03 Memo Says; Since Rescinded, the Document Granted Nearly Unfettered Presidential Power"

ADVERTISEMENTS

"Terrorism Interrogators Immune From Prosecution, '03 Memo Says; Since Rescinded, the Document Granted Nearly Unfettered Presidential Power": Dan Eggen and Josh White of The Washington Post have a news update that begins, "Federal laws prohibiting assault and other crimes did not apply to military interrogators who questioned al-Qaeda captives because the president's ultimate authority as commander-in-chief overrode such statutes, according to a newly declassified 2003 Justice Department memo released today."

The newspaper has posted online the memorandum, written by John C. Yoo, in two parts: part one and part two.
