Sign up to Host a Screening of Tortured Law

Attorney General Eric Holder recently announced an investigation of low-level CIA operatives who exceeded the grisly authority provided by the "torture memos." But the superiors who ordered these actions -- and the lawyers who provided the legal cover -- have not been held accountable.

AFJ's new 10-minute documentary, Tortured Law, examines the role lawyers played in authorizing torture. This fall,Tortured Law will be used as a centerpiece for discussions, forums, debates, and educational events as part of a campaign calling upon Attorney General Holder to conduct a full investigation of not only the CIA operatives, but of the torture memos' authors. Watch the trailer for AFJ's short film Tortured Law.

Call on Attorney General Holder to investigate torture to the full extent of the law.
