Interview with Omar Khadr attorney, Dennis Edney

 

NEWS UPDATE; KHADR TRIAL DELAYED; MILITARY ATTORNEY SICK

Canadian attorney Dennis Edney joins host Linda Olson-Osterlund to talk about his 8 year relationship with the young prisoner he calls " like a son to me" and his determined fight to see Canadian citizen Omar Khadr released. Khadr, who was only 15 years old when captured by US forces in 2002, is on trial now by Military Commission at Guantanamo. His trial is a violation of International law on the treatment of child soldiers and yet is being vigorously pursued by the Obama administration. Learn about the letter Omar wrote to Edney in May and why it has been released to the public.
