Charles Graner, Abu Ghraib Ringleader Freed

'Graner was convicted of offenses that included stacking the prisoners into a pyramid, knocking one of them out with a head punch and ordering prisoners to masturbate while soldiers took pictures.He maintained that the actions were part of a plan directed by military intelligence officers to soften up prisoners for interrogation.Graner, who received the longest sentence, is the last Abu Ghraib defendant to be released from prison. Calls and emails to Graner's father and lawyer were not immediately returned.During his deployment, Graner fathered a son with former Pfc. Lynndie England. England was given a three-year sentence for her role in the scandal.After his conviction, Graner married another member of his unit, former Spc. Megan Ambuhl. She was discharged from the Army after pleading guilty to dereliction of duty for failing to prevent or report the maltreatment.'Read More.
