Abu Ghraib prison now faces additional obscenity charges that are unrelated

based on a general Army order that prohibits the creation and possession
of sexually explicit photographs. The Army says none of the new charges
involve Iraqi detainees or Iraqi nationals.

- Private England already faces charges of assaulting Iraqi
detainees, conspiring to mistreat prisoners and committing acts that discredit
the U.S. military.
-
- Six of the seven U.S. soldiers accused in the Iraqi prisoner
abuse scandal still face charges. The seventh pleaded guilty and was sentenced
to one year in jail.
