Detainees Commit Suicide at Guantanamo
Posted on June 11th, 2006 by ecthompson
I thought that we were supposed to be watching these prisoners. We had them in open cages. We could see everything. 3 prisoners committed suicide? With what? Dreams? I simply don’t understand why, what or how?
Why are we keeping folks locked up with a trial? If they are guilty, try them and jail or shoot them. If they are not guilty set them free. I don’t understand placing hundreds of people in limbo.
What happened? None of the “accounts” really explain what happened? Do you understand this?
How did these 3 men make the ultimate escape?
I heard that they hung themselves. Not all that hard. Only takes a few minutes to hang oneself and not much equipment. Shoelaces and a door knob will do it.
Isn’t it standard pracice not to give people who have suicidial tendacies shoes that require shoelaces?
Again, these are open cages. Couldn’t anyone see a prisoner hanging themselves? I guess my point is several prisoners have tried suicide in the past. We were on high alert but …
Regulations at Guantánamo call for guards to check on each inmate every two minutes!!
We need the whole story. As usual, there is something that we are not being told.
