seven of the eight jurors signed a handwritten letter recommending clemency for majid kahn. this is what they concluded and i want to quote it word for word. mr. kahn has been held without the basic due process under the u.s. military -- under the u.s. constitution. he was subjected to physical and psychological abuse well beyond approved enhanced interrogation techniques instead of being closer to torture performed by the post abusive regimes in modern history n. abuse was of no practical value, no practical value in terms of intelligence or any other tangible benefits to u.s. interests. remember, i have just quoted these senior u.s. military officials who sat on a jury where this man was being tried and they in a handwritten letter wrote what i just read. now that last point is a crucial one. the human rights abuses we committed in guantanamo and c.i.a. black sites are not merely inhumane. they don't work. they're ineffective. kahn testified. i lied just to make the abuse stop. torturing him brought us no clarity, brought us no truth. it brought us no closer to eradicating
