GTMO Video: Daphne Eviatar Discusses Day 1 of Khadr Hearing
GUANTANAMO BAY — Seated near me in the courtroom today during Omar Khadr’s pre-trial hearing was a sight for sun-beaten eyes: Daphne Eviatar, the former TWI legal affairs correspondent who’s now working for Human Rights First. Shortly after Army Col. Pat Parrish, the judge hearing the case, gaveled this afternoon’s proceedings into recess, I caught up with Daphne so she could walk everyone through the highlights of the defense’s attempt to suppress Khadr’s statements to interrogators from being used against him in his scheduled July military commission.
