Luke Bielawski, who is a recent graduate of the Indiana University McKinney School of Law, recently traveled to the military base at Ft. Meade, Maryland to monitor the Guantanamo Bay hearings in the U.S.S. Cole case, with one of the defendants being al Nashiri. At Ft. Meade, the hearings are broadcast live via a secure video-link. We are re-posting some of his photos that demonstrate his excitement and enthusiasm about his Mission. More reports by Luke can be found elsewhere on this Military Commission Observation Project (MCPO) Blog. If any other IU McKinney students, faculty, staff of graduates wish to travel to Ft. Meade or Guantanamo Bay on a MCOP Mission, please follow this link and register: MCOP Registration.
Packing for my week at Fort Meade for the Guantanamo Bay Hearings
Even though I’m not in the court room at Gitmo, I’m still representing McKinney Law School and Indiana, so I want to look my best!
Waiting for departure…
ALMOST everything I’ve learned about the GTMO proceedings has come from popular media outlets. I’m excited to get a first hand view on what is going on. A bit ironic that the news right before I boarded was covering the War on Terror and Al’Qaeda
Glad to review the MCOP Briefing Book on the plane to the East Coast — Most Helpful! Thanks to Mr. Jeff Meding, Ms. Qifan Wang, Ms. Krisitin Brockett & Professor George Edwards!
My connection is through Philadelphia
