Team Mission

Cdr, CJTF-7 requests a team of subject matter experts to assess, and make specific recommendations concerning detention and corrections operations in Iraq...assist in resolving the management and administration of detainee operations.


The team must be prepared to make specific recommendations and identify the resources required to ensure that detainees are held and processed in accordance with the requirements imposed by U.S. and international law.


The focus of the team will be to identify problems, propose solutions and recommend the resources necessary to implement the solutions. A report that merely documents problems will not be helpful.


Restated Mission: We view our team in an assistance role, as part of the CJTF-7 Team. A key aspect of the mission is to make recommendations on how to bridge from current operations to an Iraqi-run prison system that is synched with CPA plans, and adequately address general detention operations and management, legal/judicial systems, medical support and information systems management.

Detention and Corrections System
Management
• Observations (12):
— CPA MOJ Prisons Department are proven experts in corrections, but
under-manned, resulting in over-reliance on Coalition MP support
— 800th MP (I/R) Bde has used elements of several assigned MP (I/R) Bns
and two Brigade LNO Dets to assist CPA MOJ
— Long-term vision or projected end-state for facilities, staff levels, or
anticipated prison population is unclear
— Conflicting perceptions Abu Ghurayb Prison complex end-state

Detainee Management (including movement, segregation and accountability)

Observations (10):


CPA Memorandum #2, provides sufficient guidance to develop standard operating procedures (SOP) for the Iraqi prison system


Memo #2 cannot serve as a substitute for a detailed facility SOP; CPA MOJ is working on a more comprehensive facility operational guide


No military police units purposely applying inappropriate confinement practices


Soldiers with previous military/civilian corrections experience employed more effective & appropriate procedures, knowing what "right" looked like


Recommendations (33):

Means of Command and Control of the
Detention and Corrections System

• Observations (7):

US Army MP doctrine calls upon specialized Theater-level MP units to conduct Intemment/Resettlement (I/R) operations in the COMMZ

800th MP (I/R) Bde has experienced challenges adapting its structure, training and equipment resources to its current mission-set


CFLCC has not requested a replacement MP (I/R) Bde for OIF 2


HQDA has approved a new Force Dessign Update to address new paradigm in I/R operations and expana5ng operational requirements.

Detainee Medical Care, Health Management and Medical Operations Assessment
• Observations (12):

U.S. military providers cover many Iraqi responsibilities; delineation of responsibilities for health care is unclear between detainee categories


U.S. military medical units lack adequate personneUvehicles to
appropriately manage the detainee mission


Rapid turnover of U.S. military physician personnel creates additional concerns for appropriate correctional health care management

• Recommendations 17

OFFICE OF THE PROVOST MARSHAL GENERAL
Detention Facilities that meet required
Health, Hygiene, and Sanitation Standards

• Observations (13):

Significant variance in the health, hygiene and sanitation conditions in various facilities; ICRC reports major progress in all these areas


Most facilities have adequate water supplies, sewage management and appropriate food services to comply with United Nations guidelines


Present shortfalls in logistical support (equipment, medications, vehicles) for the Iraqi medical system are taxirrNhe U.S. military system

Court Integration and Docket Management for Criminal Detainees
• Observations (9):

Docket management and release protocols play a significant role in population control and ultimately facility & staffing requirements


Mosul Central Booking Facility with onsite court facilities, coupled with timely Investigative Courts a solid model for large urban areas

• Recommendations (22):

Detainee Legal Processing

Observations (15):


Criminal Detainees are referred to the Iraqi Criminal process


Security Internees are interned under Article 78 of the Geneva
Conventions

Detainee Databases and Records (including integration w/ law enforcement/court databases)

Observations (5):


Security Internee information recorded in NDRS and BATS


Not all have reliable data (NIPR/SIPR) or phone connectivity to connect BATS terminals to the central server, no central system administrator


Though there are several US State integrated prison systems, none are effectively integrated with law enforcement agencies and courts
