Murder at Camp Delta: A Staff Sergeant's Pursuit of the Truth About Guantanamo Bay by Joseph Hickman
laurashavers's review against another edition
3.0
This book questions 3 detainees suicides at Gitmo and if they were really caused due to torture at a not officially acknowledged camp at Guantanamo Bay.
I find it odd that this story hasn't received more press---- if it was more credible. By the end of the book, it seemed to be repetitive.

I received this book for free from Goodreads First Reads.
I admire what Joseph did standing up for what he thought was right. However, I find it really hard to believe that he wouldn't participate in any of the torture/bullying antics at the camp. I don't blame the people there, I blame the environment and the conditions. I think that anyone who was there would participate in some way or another.
I liked the book but I wish that he had spent a bit more of the book detailing more about the camp and a little less about the legal process. The first half seemed rushed while the second half had much more detail. I think that Joseph did the right thing and I respect him for standing up in the end for what he knew was right.
