Citing an “unreasonable delay” in investigating reported environmental hazards at the US Navy’s notorious Guantanamo Bay detention facility, military lawyers have filed a suit against the Department of Defense, claiming that they have for years been exposed to cancer-causing agents that have put their health at risk.
The Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp (GTMO, or "Gitmo"), operated by the US Navy, predominantly houses suspected terrorists. Each suspect is mandated to be assigned a military lawyer to follow through the long, complex process of ascertaining innocence or guilt. Those military defense lawyers, while working on their assigned cases, have been forced to live and work in toxic environments, according to McClatchy.
