What Is Abu Ghraib Accused Of Abuse
The Abu Ghraib prison was a prison in Iraq that was notorious for torturing the prisoners. Some of the violations include murder, sodomy, sexual abuse, and rape. Photographs of each torture mechanism were taken and shown to the government. Many of the American soldiers involved in the Abu Ghraib prison scandal were accused of abuse. The administration of George W. Bush tried to cover up the abuse cases as “isolated incidents”, therefore making it seem as if the torture was only happening to select inmates, and as a form of intense interrogation. It was later revealed that the torture was not conducted on a select few, but conducted throughout groups of the inmates. Some of the abusers in the prison believed that they were doing a good thing.
