Defense Lawyer Drops His Pants to Demonstrate Abuse at Guantánamo
David H. Remes, an American lawyer representing 15 Yemenis currently challenging their detention at Guantánamo Bay, recently made his seventh trip to Yemen to meet with his clients' families and "to do what I can to promote the cause of these men."
