“The CIA inspector general’s office has said it ‘mistakenly’ destroyed its only copy of a comprehensive Senate torture report, despite lawyers for the Justice Department assuring a federal judge that copies of the documents were being preserved. Last summer CIA inspector general officials deleted an uploaded computer file with the report and then accidentally destroyed a disk that also contained the document. The 6,700-page report contains thousands of secret files about the CIA’s use of ‘enhanced’ interrogation methods, including waterboarding, sleep deprivation and other aggressive interrogation techniques at ‘black site’ prisons overseas.”
