Bush’s torture psychologists wanted to use ‘mock burials’: report
The Department of Justice rejected a request from psychologists Bruce Jessen and James Mitchell to give the CIA the power to pretend to bury terror suspects during interrogations in the years after the 9/11 attacks. A report (PDF, 289 pages) from the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility, released last Friday, documents ten interrogation techniques approved by Bush administration lawyers Jay Bybee and John Yoo. The psychologists had requested twelve techniques. One of those two techniques has already been revealed to be prolonged diapering.
