WASHINGTON (AP) - Military prosecutors are poring over thousands of pages of documents, and defense lawyers are traveling to the Middle East as the United States prepares to bring charges against dozens of detainees held at Guantanamo Bay. They include 14 once held secretly by the CIA.
But trials will take time.
"The biggest limiting factor I have right now is that I've got one courtroom," said Air Force Brig. Gen. Thomas Hemingway, the legal adviser to the Pentagon's office on commissions. "I have told everybody the entire time that I'm here, if they want a faster process, we are going to need additional resources."
