Podcast discussing the government's use, and misuse, of its suspension power to interfere with Guantanamo Bay detainees' rights to independent counsel. Combined with the government's silencing of the detainees by denying them a hearing on who they would like as their attorney, and the government's blocking privileged legal mail subject to the attorney-client privilege, the government's aggressive use of its suspension power to limit the pool of available defense attorneys calls into question the fairness and independence of the legal cases involving allegations of terrorism.
