officer, I find it incredible that none of his superiors are in jail (and I mean specifically his lt., his capt., his first sergeant: I find it impossible to believe they were not aware of what he was doing, or if they were not, they were so criminally negligent in their supervisory duties that they should be jailed as well). I agree with the commandant of the prison that Graner shamed the MP corps: but I would point out that those officers who had Graner under their direct supervision brought far more shame on it. I was taught that I was responsible for the actions of those under me, with no excuses for negligence. If Graner's lt. and capt. aren't in there with him, why is he?
