The British Home Secretary gave Jeff Sessions the green light for ISIS executioners to be tried in the U.S.

“Between us, we have spent close to 90 years imprisoned without charge or trial," the letter says.

A prisoner at Guantánamo Bay and his guard formed an unlikely bond during his detention. It included a love for the cult classic "The Big Lebowski."

"Be at the top of your game," in case diplomacy with Kim Jong Un failed, was the U.S. defense secretary's Christmas message to soldiers.

"I would certainly consider that. Send him to Gitmo. I would certainly consider it," President Donald Trump said.

The U.S. military’s brutal and ineffective interrogation program started at Gitmo, then spread to Abu Ghraib. One man who tried to stop it—and failed—now fears America may torture again.

A prisoner at the camp in Cuba calls on the president to end his ordeal.

The secretive military prison houses 41 inmates, including the alleged plotters of 9/11.

Omar Khadr launched a civil suit alleging the country was complicit in torture with the U.S.

The U.S. government doesn’t want one of the most high-profile detainees at its prison in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba to tell his story.

“There might well be detainees who we scooped up as young men who we think are guilty," says Oliver. "But they will never get a trial, and they will be there until they die.”

“I am almost 40 years old. I imagined having a family and children one day. But here I am, still alone.”

Former Guantánamo inmates desperately try to rebuild lives, but they end up stuck, neither imprisoned nor completely free.

Transfers come just days before Obama visits Saudi Arabia for a meeting of Gulf Arab allies.

Although the large majority of detainees were brought to Gitmo “to provide information,” two thirds did not reveal any information about fellow detainees even when tortured.

Professional military personnel have been deployed to serve in a court system that is nearly beyond rehabilitation.

The immediate beneficiaries won’t be the detainees; it will be the GOP candidates, all of whom oppose the plan.

The president has been trying for years to make good on his pledge to close the facility.

After his release, 104 inmates remain at the maximum security facility.

Family members of the fallen attend a hearing for 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four of his alleged co-conspirators.

The ramp-up of transfers are part of Obama’s long-held promise to close the detention facility.

A small Pentagon team has surveyed facilities including the Consolidated Naval Brig in South Carolina.

The U.S. is working to reach agreement with countries around the globe to transfer 53 eligible Guantanamo prisoners.

Some say Aamer’s rebellious behavior at Gitmo and his ability to embarrass the U.S. with what he saw behind bars prolonged his detention.

A new plan to close the military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is likely to be unveiled in the coming days.

Younous Chekkouri has spent more than six weeks in detention, waiting to be sentenced or reunited with his family.

How is Obama ever going to close Guantánamo if diplomatic assurances are worthless?

Judge Gladys Kessler called the government’s arguments “repetitive, speculative and extremely vague.”
