Cheney CIA Request - Accessory to Torture?
Today we learned the details of
Dick Cheney's request to release information regarding the success of obtaining information through use of torture.
Ok, so let me try and extrapolate this out and ask a question.
So, Cheney had a file of all the detainees in his office. Or at least, a file containing what info they have received from the detainees and presumably the methods by which this info was received.
That would mean, we have documented proof that Cheney knew exactly what methods where being used. Now, we have crimes for accessory to murder, is there accessory to torture? (Maybe on an international level?) If so, Cheney could be very easily be charged and convicted of approving, or at the very least, not trying to stop torture.
Just a thought.

Maybe the missing Whitehouse files, that the Judiciary has been asking for, are in one of Cheneys files labeled "For my eyes only"
Or "Get out of Jail free card"
