Prosecutors: Padilla Interrogation Video Lost

HeadlineMar 02, 2007

Meanwhile, there is more news from the Jose Padilla hearings. Military prosecutors are claiming a video recording of Padilla’s last interrogation at a U.S. Navy brig in South Carolina has been lost. Defense lawyers had requested the video in an effort to prove Padilla’s harsh treatment and confinement has helped cause serious psychological damage, making him unfit for trial. A judge rejected the defense argument on Wednesday. A trial is set to begin in two weeks.
