Beginning in 2004, accounts of abuse, torture, sodomy and homicide of prisoners held in the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq (also known as Baghdad Correctional Facility) came to public attention. The acts were committed by some personnel of the 372nd Military Police Company of the United States Army together with additional American governmental agencies. These additional agencies have been referred to as the OGA (Other Government Agencies), which is an often used euphemism for the Central Intelligence Agency.

The old saying claims a picture is worth a thousand words. But in his new documentary Standard Operating Procedure, Oscar-winning filmmaker Errol Morris argues that a thousand words aren't always enough.
