What's being investigated: Detainee abuse at Abu Ghraib prison.

Inquiry conducted by Army Major Gen. George Fay and Lieut. Gen. Anthony Jones.

What has been released: A 177-page report completed in August 2004.

Sources: Four additional Army investigations, including those by Maj. Gen. Antonio Taguba and Lt. Gen. Paul Mikolashek, then the Army inspector general, as well as 170 interviews with military personnel.

Findings : Fifty-four military personnel and civilian contractors were in some way responsible for or complicit in the abuses at Abu Ghraib, including 27 from the 205th Military Intelligence Brigade who encouraged military police to abuse prisoners, abused prisoners themselves, or violated laws and rules of interrogation. Seven low-ranking soldiers were criminally prosecuted. The report attributes the abuse at Bagram to the failure of leaders of the 205th and the 800th Military Intelligence Brigades to supervise or properly discipline their soldiers. It cites a proliferation of interrogation guidelines, but blames the layers of guidelines only for relatively mild forms of mistreatment. The authors cite the commander Sanchez and his deputy Wojdakowskilater cleared by the Green investigationfor failing to ensure proper oversight and for issuing "inconsistent" and "confusing" guidelines.

Context: In contrast to the Green investigation, the Fay-Jones Report tracks the breakdown at Abu Ghraib to the top commanders. But no disciplinary action is recommended for Sanchez or his deputies.
