subject to the Geneva Convention, but Rumsfeld said Bush had said they were.

Thanks for helping connect the dots.

-Camp Whitehorse, near Nasiriyah, Iraq, June 2003: Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Christian Hernandez, a reservist, grabs detainee Nagem Sadoon Hatab, a 52-year-old former Baath Party official, by the neck, snapping a bone and killing him.
Hernandez was trying to move Hatab. Investigators believed the death was accidental. Hatab was left lying naked, covered in his own feces, for hours when he was found dead at the detention facility near Nasiriyah.

Hernandez and his superior officer, Maj. Clark A. Paulus, also a reservist, were charged with negligent homicide. Their commanding general dismissed those charges in April.

Paulus, the detention camp's commanding officer, instead faces general court-martial on a single charge of dereliction of duty, a charge of assault and two charges of cruelty and maltreatment.

Sgt. Gary Pittman, who was accused of karate-kicking Hatab in the chest, faces two charges of dereliction of duty and four of assault. Several other reservists faced lesser charges in connection with the mistreatment of detainees.
