<p>Investigation of assault by soldier who threatened to kill Iraqi civilians in custody of U.S. forces in an army compound in Baghdad, Iraq. The soldier forced a detainee to hold a round in his hands, threatening to kill him with it if he did not provide information regarding a recent grenade attack. At one point, the soldier ordered two detainees down on their knees with their eyes closed and a bullet in their mouths. He took the bullets and ordered another soldier to charge his gun without chambering a round. The two detainees separately identified the same individual allegedly responsible for the grenade attack, making the soldier leading the interrogation to &quot;feel that [his] tactics worked.&quot; The soldier admitted to having no formal training as an interrogator and was not aware of formal army policies on interrogation techniques. He said that he had no intent to injury any detainee and claimed that no one touched or pointed a weapon at anyone. Though the investigation found probable cause to believe that the soldier had committed assault, the investigation was terminated and nonjudicial action was taken pursuant to UCMJ Art. 15.</p>

I could tell that CPT 111.11111111.was stressed out about this. We started bringing detainees to the Battalion area, questioning them and taking their pictures. Part of the reasoning was to build a profile of crimipals, and to see if we were arresting the same people, over and over again. We had questions numerouspeople and always got the same information which was that they knew nothing or saw nothing. We learned that the Iraqis would not give up any information unless they were caught in a lie or trickcinto giving up the information. People had suggested different ways into tricking the Iraqis into giving information. One suggestion was to put sand bags into a body bag and carry it out of an interrogation room. On this particular night I had heard over the radio that a raid had been conducted in a sector of our AOR. The initial report was that they were bringing in 30 prostitutes. They ended up coming into the camp with two females and thirteen guys. I thought that this was a raid in response to a recent grenade attack we had. I began questioning people about the grenade attack. I brought them all in and took their picture, and asked them about the grenade attack. They all denied any knowledge. I then asked the informant who pointed out two people out of the photos I had taken. They were brought back in individually. I spoke separately to these two guys. I placed a bullet on the table. I eventually made him hold it. I would not let him put it down. I told him that was the bullet that would kill him if he didn't talk. They continued to deny any knowledge of the grenade attack. I painted to SPC 1111111/1.1. and told them that he would kill them if they lied. I told them that they were lying to me and made 111111111111.1111. start to walk one outside. I told him it was his last chance. He told 11.11111.was the one that did the grenade attack. I then questioned the second guy separately, but using the same tactic. He also named Mil These two guys had no chance of getting a story together to use the name... The both used the same name separately; making me fell like my tactics worked. I brought them both back in together, and accused them of getting a story together. I told them that I'd had it with them. I had them both kneel down with a bullet in their mouth. I told them to keep their eyes closed; I took a bullet out of their mouth. I then had aill/Mcharge his weapon. There were no rounds involved, and the weapons were not loaded. I told them this was their last chance. They both stated 8I said OK. They were taken outside. They both were taken back out with the Scouts and showed the scouts where8lived. This was so we could do surveillance on IMP I have no ideal of what happened with that information. Q. Are you a school-trained interrogator? A. No, I'm not. Q.
