A new short documentary connects a former Guantánamo Bay detainee, a government whistleblower, and the former deputy director of the post-9/11 Criminal Investigation Task Force––CERL Advisory Council Member Mark Fallon––to deal with the legacy of the infamous prison. In an essay on SpyTalk, Karen J. Greenberg writes that the film is both an inside look at how the enhanced interrogation program took root and a moving testament to forgiveness.
Mark Fallon is the co-founder of Project Aletheia at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, director of ClubFed, LLC, and a member of the CERL Advisory Council. He is the author of Unjustifiable Means: The Inside Story of How the CIA, Pentagon, and US Government Conspired to Torture. Read his bio here.
