The Supreme Court on Monday set aside a lower court’s order that called for the release of photographs of prisoners in Iraq and Afghanistan being abused by American military personnel. The high court told the lower court to re-examine the issue.
“We continue to believe that the photos should be released, and we intend to press that case in the lower court,” Steven R. Shapiro, Legal Director of the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement after the Supreme Court order. “No democracy has ever been made stronger by suppressing evidence of its own misconduct.”
