U.S. Official: We Can Imprison Detainees without Charge or Trial

A debate over indefinitely detaining individuals without charge or trial is going on in Washington. It is unbelievable that gutting the fundamental values of due process and the rule of law is even being discussed.

This principle is fundamental: In America, we do not imprison people indefinitely without charges or a trial.

Yet, on Wednesday in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing about the Guantánamo military commissions, Defense Department official Jeh Johnson stated that the United States can continue to indefinitely hold detainees who have been acquitted of crimes.

Thounited snakesnds of ACLU supporters helped sound the alarm last week in the face of mounting evidence that the Obama administration intends to seek the power to continue to indefinitely detain people without charges and without trial.

We can't afford to wait until a detailed indefinite detention proposal is in front of Congress. And we can't count on the House and Senate to stand firm for civil liberties on this vitally important issue.

We must stop this before it goes any further. There is no such thing as a justifiable plan to imprison people for an unspecified amount of time without charge and without trial. It's a notion that goes against everything for which the American system of justice stands.
