34 Senators: End DOJ Investigation of CIA Interrogators

Thirty-four Republican senators will send a letter to Barack Obama, calling on the president “to finally end the DOJ’s unwarranted investigations of CIA interrogators, whose work led to one of the most defining moments of the Global War on Terror.”

This letter to the president comes after the killing of al Qaeda founder and chief Osama bin Laden, and after various intelligence officials, including Obama’s CIA director Leon Panetta, acknowledged that “a multiple series of sources that provided information with regards to this situation… Clearly some of it came from detainees and the interrogation of detainees…they used these enhanced interrogation techniques against some of those detainees.”
