FBI Email re: Response to Steve McCraw’s Email on Detainee Abuse and Maltreatment at Guantanamo Bay

July 13, 2004 | FBI | ACLU-RDI 4966
This email is a response to a Bureau wide memo sent by Steve McCraw to illicit information from FBI agents who toured through Guantanamo Bay to report any suspected or witnessed abuse of detainees at Guantanamo Bay. The agent stated the following "During [my] second deployment, 07/17/2003 to 09/02/2003, I observed a detainee being exposed to loud music and a strobe light during an interrogation. I do not recall the date that this took place, the detainee's name, or who was interrogating the detainee. I saw what was going on at approximately 10:00 am and I believe the detainee was referred to as the prison man due to his knowledge of chemical [and] biological weapons."
