Should statements gathered through enhanced interrogation techniques be suppressed in military commission trials of accused terrorists? Are statements made later to federal investigators cured of any taint by being made in a different place and context? Should the identity of government participants in enhanced interrogations be made available to the defense? In the years since the creation of the Military Commissions at Guantanamo Bay, military and federal judges have grappled with these critical issues of evidentiary admissibility and discovery. Join us as two law professor scholars of national security law discuss the wide-ranging implications of these issues.
