Omar Khadr documents the U.S. withheld from Canada
When the U.S. government pressured Canada to agree to accept the transfer of convicted murderer and terrorist Omar Khadr, it withheld key information about Khadr's dangerousness.
That information included:
1. An eight-hour videotaped interview of Khadr, conducted by leading forensic psychiatrist Dr. Michael Welner; 2. A 63-page report by Dr. Welner; and 3. Dr. Welner's testimony in court.
That eight-hour video tape is still being suppressed by the U.S. government, but here are the other two documents referred to above -- information that the Canadian government did not have when it was pressed to accept the prison transfer.
