Thanks. m~(lf6-1 LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 2 Jul 04 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY [UJ UPDATE -POSSIBLE DETAINEE ABUSE -AFGHANISTAN [USACIDC]: This responds to a request from the DAS for an investigative status update. As noted in the EXSUMs of 28 Jun and 1 Jul 04, Army CID initiated a criminal investigation upon receipt of information from the Office of the Staff Judge Advocate, Bagram Air Field, that during an office cleanup personnel discovered a recordable compact disk [CD-R] that contained images of possible detainee abuse involving apparent members of B Co, 2/22d Inf Bn, 10th Mtn Div, Ft Drum, NY. Since the last EXSUM, the division Chief of Staff has been briefed on this matter. He was not familiar with any of the events depicted on the CD, but in regards to the depicted deceased person he could only speculate that it might be a photograph of a local national who had attempted a bombing attack and had been killed before succeeding. It has been determined that . the former 10th Mtn Div SJA (L TC.-, did not know of any AR 15-6 investigationsMC-3, ~-3 conducted by the division that coincided with any of the events depicted on the CD. Further, he advised that he was not aware of any such CD contained in any of his offices at Bagram, but that the disk may have been kept in Trial Defense.· The Trial Defense Service attorney for the 10th Mtn Div has been located and interviewed. He advised that neither the CD nor the events depicted were related to any clients or actions that he worked while in Afghanistan, and he denied that the CD had been left in his office at Bagram. A review of an AR 15-6 investigation conducted on an element of the 2/22d Inf Bn disclosed it concerned a juvenile who had been killed in an offensive operation, and that it did not pertain to any of the events depicted on the CD. Attempts are on-going to effect interviews through leave addresses and phone numbers, when persons are not physically available for interview, with the leadership and members of B Co, 2/22d Inf Bn in an attempt to ascertain the nature and vud·1 . - DODDOACID 009387 circumstances of the events depicted on the CD. Thus far, no one interviewed has been able to positively state the nature of the images. Although the division is willing to issue a recall to all individuals on leave, that measure has not been requested until it can be established that an actual crime has occurred. Investigation continues by ArmyCID. 101(.-I,kR-/ • 1_'elvoir.army.mil APPROVED BY: COL ,*~/(~-( FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE All information related to this matter is law enforcement sensitive and should be restricted.
