From Times Wire Reports
A soldier convicted in the Abu Ghraib scandal testified at Ft. Hood that it was he and not Spc. Sabrina Harman who handed wires to a hooded Iraqi prisoner forced to stand on a box for an hour in 2003.
Staff Sgt. Ivan Frederick II said he never saw the 27-year-old Harman participate in that or several other instances of mistreatment she is accused of at the Baghdad-area prison.
