EXTREME PREJUDICE: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq Page 66

by Susan Lindauer


  Finally, Susan has stated correctly that I made three attempts to visit her at Carswell, driving 700 miles each way. On the first two tries, guards refused to admit me to the military base, telling me no prison was there. The second time, guards insisted the prison was closed on weekends. Only when Judge Mukasey ordered U.S. Marshals to stand by as an escort was I admitted. This occurred at a critical moment, when I was trying to broker a solution that would satisfy the Court and secure her freedom. At that point, we just wanted her home. The decision on competence was secondary to protecting her from forcible drugging and winning her release.

  “Extreme prejudice” strikes me as an appropriate title, given what the government tried to do.
