Horrible

Don't make the mistake I did and read this article before breakfast. One of the seven accused MP's, the one who took most of the photographs, spoke to the Washington Post about her unit's mission and lack of training. She managed a Papa John's Pizza place near D.C. before being called up in the reserve; soon she was taking photos as her friends "softened up" suspected insurgents for interrogation. She realized it was wrong, but she wouldn't listen to her mother when told to get herself out of there ASAP.

The moral of the story is respect human dignity and listen to your mother.
