From Alex Knapp, who says that being imprisoned for a crime you didn’t commit isn’t the worst injustice you can suffer after all:
Now I’ve learned that there is something worse that can happen. You can be accused of a crime you didn’t commit, then have the government that imprisoned you acknowledge that yes, you are innocent — but they’re going to keep you in prison anyway.
He’s talking about the 17 Uighurs who continue to be held at Guantanamo Bay despite the fact that they were clearly brought there in error and have never conspired against the United States in any way. The Obama administration acknowledges this, but continues to argue in court that it has no obligation to release them anyway. Not exactly a profile in courage.
