"Guantanamo Bay: What Indefinite Detention Without Charge or Trial Looks Like"

The Honorable Richard A. Jones '75 moderates a conversation between Joshua Colangelo-Bryan '99, who has represented six men who were detained for years at Guantanamo Bay without charge or trial, and Professor Eric Schnapper, who has won three U.S. Supreme Court cases and is a recognized expert in the areas of civil rights, discrimination, terrorism and the law.

Mr. Colangelo-Bryan will share his experiences visiting those clients at Guantanamo as well as the experiences of his clients in U.S. custody. A discussion will follow regarding the U.S. government's legal positions with respect to the detainees, including the government's argument that the detainees can be held indefinitely even if they are not even accused of taking any action against the United States or its allies.
