DemocracyNow.org – Former CIA agent John Kiriakou speaks out just days after he was sentenced to 30 months in prison, becoming the first CIA official to face jail time for any reason relating to the U.S. torture program. Under a plea deal, Kiriakou admitted to a single count of violating the Intelligence Identities Protection Act by revealing the identity of a covert officer to a freelance reporter, who did not publish it. Supporters say Kiriakou is being unfairly targeted for having been the first CIA official to publicly confirm and detail the Bush administration's use of waterboarding. Kiriakou joins to discuss his story from Washington, D.C., along with his attorney, Jesselyn Radack, director of National Security and Human Rights at the Government Accountability Project. "This was not a case about leaking, it was a case about torture. I believe I am going to prison because I blew the whistle on torture," Kiriakou says. "My oath was to the Constitution. … And to me, torture is unconstitutional."

– A maximum-security federal prison shipped out its most dangerous inmate… and nobody noticed for two hours. This is the story of the most creative prison escape in American history.
An Air Force sergeant turned convicted killer was serving two life sentences when he discovered a flaw in the prison's mailbag repair program. After months of secret preparation, he climbed into a shipping pallet, buried himself under canvas bags, and let the guards deliver him straight past the fences. But the escape was just the beginning. During the manhunt, he encountered a police officer on a back road – and spent 10 minutes convincing the cop he was just a jogger. The officer let him go. Two hours later, that officer learned he'd released America's most wanted fugitive.
What finally ended his 18-month run across two countries? And why do federal agents still study this prison break today?

On the night of July 10th, 2020, police in a quiet Washington suburb rushed to an apartment complex after receiving a frantic call from a woman hiding inside her home. She had dropped to the floor as a barrage of gunshots erupted just outside her window, terrified that the next bullet might come through the wall.
When officers arrived, they stepped into a deeply unsettling scene.
A man lay on the pavement beside his vehicle, bleeding profusely after being shot multiple times. Even as paramedics worked to keep him conscious, he kept pleading with officers to check on his young son waiting inside their home. The child, only seven years old and living with disabilities due to a medical complication, depended entirely on his fatherβs constant care and attentionβcare the man had provided tirelessly, even now as he slipped in and out of consciousness.
He underwent several emergency surgeries, doctors desperately trying to remove the bullets lodged throughout his body. Meanwhile, investigators worked quickly to identify the shooter.
What they uncovered next took the case in a direction no one expected.
