Abu Ghraib Officer Spared Prison

The only US army officer to be charged over the Iraq jail abuse scandal has been reprimanded for disobeying an order not to discuss the inquiry. Lt. Col Steven Jordan had faced up to five years in jail for e-mailing soldiers about the investigation. He had been in charge of the prison's interrogation unit when pictures of US soldiers abusing Iraqi prisoners were taken in 2003.
