Review for Guantanamo detainees
The White House is drafting an executive order for President Obama on Guantanamo. The order would formalize the indefinite detention without trial of some Guantanamo detainees, while setting up a system of periodic reviews of their cases. Anchor Marco Werman speaks with Lt. Col David Frakt of the US Air Force Reserve JAG Corps. Frakt says the order might allow some detainees to effectively challenge their incarceration.
