Graner sentenced to 10 years for abuses.
He will also be given a dishonorable discharge from the Reserve at the rank of private.
Friday, the same jury found Graner guilty of 10 charges, including aggravated assault, maltreatment and conspiracy.
Prosecutors accused Graner of being a ringleader in the physical abuse and sexual humiliation of prisoners that came to light when photos of apaprent abuses were broadcast in the media in April 2004.
Now, if only prison guards in domestic prisons were getting the same treatment, we might get somewhere. (FYI, the prisoners involved in those pictures were common criminals, not jihadis — at least not then.)
Totally off-topic to CNN: Would you like a good proofreader? I know at least two I could recommend. “Apaprent” isn’t a word.
