The Federal Bar Association Book Club recently hosted a discussion on “The Least Worst Place: Guantanamo’s First 100 Days,” by Karen Greenberg, executive director of the Center on Law and Security. The discussion, inspired to build relationships between the bench and the bar, took place at the Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse in Detroit. Among those taking part in the discussion were (left right) U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Walter Shapero, Eastern District of Michigan; Tim Devine; Andrew Lievense; Andrew Doctoroff; Dan Linna; U.S. District Court Judge George Caram Steeh, Eastern District of Michigan; Matthew Schneider; U.S. District Court Judges Marianne Battani, Arthur Tarnow, and Bernard Friedman; and Doug Salzenstein. “The book essentially addresses the balance between trying to ensure order, stability, maintaining proper interrogation protocol on one hand with recognizing the needs and the rights of the detainees on the other hand and how the people in place at the facility at that time manage to achieve that balance,” noted Doctoroff, Book Club Committee chair.
