From BBC:
For Lt Col Darrel Vandeveld, a devout Catholic, the twin responsibilities of religious faith and military duty led to a profound moral crisis.
His resignation has led to charges against six inmates being dropped, at least for now, and called into question the possibility of a fair legal process at Guantanamo.
“I know so many fighting men and women who are stained by the taint of Guantanamo, so I’m here to tell the truth about Guantanamo and how a few people have sullied the American military and the constitution.”
…
“I never suffered such anguish in my life about anything,” he says, looking back over the period.
“It took me too long to recognise that we had abandoned our American values and defiled our constitution.”
