Yahoo! News - US Soldier Says Her Job Was to Make Prison 'Hell'
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Her job was to "make it hell" for Iraqi prisoners so they would talk, one of the six U.S. soldiers accused of prisoner abuse was quoted as saying on Friday.

The Washington Post reported that Spec. Sabrina Harman told it in e-mail interviews that detainees were handed over to her military police unit at the Abu Ghraib prison by military intelligence officers, or by civilian contractors who conducted interrogations.

Excuse me? Do we "contract" out interrogations? Who won (or was granted) the bid, "Thugs R Us"?

A Pentagon spokeswoman declined comment on the Post article, saying the matter was under investigation.

The spokeswoman also declined comment on whether military intelligence officers or civilian contractors delivered prisoners to the Abu Ghraib prison. The issue of who was in charge of the prison during the reported abuse was a prominent one in hearings on Capitol Hill on Friday.

I think we need an investigation of all the "contractors". Who exactly are they, and what is their role there? 60 Minutes, are you listening?
