MEMORANDUM FOR Commander , 800th Military Police Brigade, BG Paul Hill.

2. On June 20, 2003 , the 115th Military Police Battalion was returned to the 800thMiJitary Police Brigade. LTC O' Hare , 800th Military Police Brigade Staff JudgeAdvocate advises that BG Paul Hill , Commander 800th Military Police Brigade , is theappropriate appointing authority. A courtesy copy of the DA 1574 and attachmentswas furnished to COL Teddy R.

The DA 1574 and supporting documentation wastimely submitted on 23 JUNE 03 by the 10.

3. Under AR 15- , paragraph 2- , I reviewed the investigation and make thefollowing determinations:

a. The investigation complies with legal requirements for an AR 15-6 investigation.

b. There are no procedural errors or irregularities that invalidate the investigation.

c. Sufficient evidence supports the investigating officer s findings.

d. The investigating officer s recommendations are consistent with his findings. Theoriginal scope of work did not specifically ask whether or not the ROE was followedbut it is the advice of the undersigned that ROE was followed.

There are a number of specificrecommendations that 1LT Magowan has made. Many of these have been put intopractice. Counsel recommends that BG Hill request a written review from LTC

REPLY TOAITENnONOF.

AETV -MPB 21 June 2003

MEMORANDUM FOR COL Teddy R. Spain, CDR, 18th Military Police, Baghdad , Iraq, APOAE 09302.

SUBJECT: AR 15-6 Investigation into the riot and subsequent shooting at Camp Cropper CorpsHolding Area on 9 June 03.

1. On 9 June 2003 , a riot occurred at the Camp Cropper Corps Holding Area on the BIAP.During the disturbance, detainees threw objects at camp MP' s including rocks , bottles , shoes andattacked guards with tent poles. In response, MP' s fired seven shots, and five detainees injured.

2. The undersigned was appointed by COL Teddy R. Spain, Commander of the 18th MP BDE toconduct a 15-6 investigation into these events and to answer specific questions regarding the riotand subsequent shootings. Prior to that, the Camp Commander, LTC Ronald Chew had ordereda Commander s Inquiry and evidence had been gathered in support of that inquiry, some ofwhich is incorporated into this final memorandum. An investigation was conducted and allrelevant persons known to the undersigned were interviewed.

3. Attached to this memorandum are the following:

a. DA 2823, sworn statement of SPC Sellmanb. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SGT Harrisc. DA 2823, sworn statement of SGM Cottmand. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SSG Durande. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SPC Grossf. DA 2823, sworn statement of SPC Reyonldsg. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SFC Chalmersh. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SGT Ericksoni. DA 2823, sworn statement of SGT Bietschj. DA 2823 , sworn statement of SGT Dovenboger

4. Conclusion

a. The escalation of the disturbance could have been prevented by better lines ofcommunication between CHA MPs, external security MPs, and the NCOlC for the QRF. Clearlydefined lines of command and improved equipment for handling detainee disturbance for eachcompound MP in the CRA could have reduced the size and scope of the disturbance.

AETV - MPBSUBJECT: Corps Holding Area Disturbance and Subsequent Shooting of Detainees

b. The focus of the CHA MPs was to control the individuals in the compounds that firststarted throwing rocks, bottles and various items at the MPs. Before the QRF was deployed, thedetainees in several compounds overwhelmed CRA MPs and began to breach the individualcompounds. The MPs pulled back to the sally port area to reorganize their forces. Before thewithdrawal was complete shots were fired from atop a water truck to protect an MP' s life.

c. The seven shots fired were justified to save D.S personnel from death or serious injury.However, the shots fired show a breakdown in communication, facility construction andcommand and control.

s. Summary of Incident

a. The Camp Cropper CRA is a rectangular fenced area measuring roughly the size of afootball field. At the time of the incident, it is divided up into approximately 14 occupiedcompounds, arranged alphabetically. The fourteen occupied compounds ranged in size ofbetween eight and two hundred detainees and varied in size. The smaller compounds weresegregated areas for juveniles or EPW' s or other individuals who needed special segregation.The larger compounds held detainees accused of common crimes.

b. On the morning of 9 June 2003 , the CHA was manned inside the wire by MP' s from the11Sth HHC and the 443rd MP CO. Soldiers from the 186th MP CO had the perimeter and were

stationed outside the wire at points around the compound.

c. Eight personnel from the 443rd made up the QRF for the day shift. The QRF was located inthe warehouse adjacent to the CHA. The person who is responsible for calling the QRF out isthe OIC or the NCOIC in the compound. Even though the QRF is stationed outside thecompound, they are not "perimeter" security, but "internal" security.

d. All soldiers inside and outside the wire had come on duty at approximately 0400 and werescheduled to work until 1600, that day.

e. SFC Mitchell was the NCOIC inside the perimeter. There is no OIC or NCOIC outside theperimeter. Any outside NCOIC did not regularly interface with the NCOIC inside thecompound.

f. Shortly after 1000 on 09 June 03 SPC Gross entered B compound to recover a water jug.

g. As he was exiting B compound, SPC Gross was confronted by a number of detainees. SGTErickson stepped into B compound to assist SPC Gross when a punch was thrown in hisdirection by one of the detainees. Several MPs entered B compound to subdue and remove thedetainee.

AETV -MPBSUBJECT: Corps Holding Area Disturbance and Subsequent Shooting of Detainees

h. After removing the instigator from B compound, several detainees from C compoundbegan throwing rocks and bottles, and began chanting.

i. SFC Chalmers , NCalC for the HVD compound, left his area of operation when he heardloud chanting coming from the CHA. After he reached the CHA, SFC Chalmers secured hisM16A2 rifle and took a position on a water truck overlooking J compound.

j. SGT Erickson, SPC Gross, and SPC Sellman entered C compound to subdue and removeseveral detainees.

k. After removing several detainees from Band C compound SFC Mitchell instructed SGTErickson , SPC Gross, and SPC Sellman to leave the CHA because SFC Mitchell thought theywere the focus of detainee anger. SFC Mitchell believed this would help to restore order.

1. Upon departing fwm the CHA SPC Sellman was seen removing his DCU top and flexing infront of B compound in a taunting manner. This action didn t assist in de-escalating the situationin the CHA.

m. B, C , and D compound continued to throw rocks and bottles and several MP were struck.SGM Cottman responded to the CHA at 1030. He spoke with several detainees to determine thereason for the disturbance.

n. The detainees in B compound began to charge the gate shortly after SGM Cottman arrived.SFC Chalmers motioned to SPC Robben (186th MP) to leave his post to obtain a better vantagepoint to provide cover for the MPs in the CHA. The MPs near B compound tried to hold the linebut the detainees pulled tent poles and breached the gate. At this point, detainees from almost allof the compounds in the CHA were throwing rocks and bottles and detainees from B, C & Dcompounds had come outside of their compounds into the main compound.

o. SFC Mitchell instructed all MPs to pull back to the sally port area. During the pull backsome of the MPs were cut off near D compound because SGM Cottman instructed them to holdtheir ground. SFC Chalmers witnessed several detainees with tent poles leaving B, C, and Dcompound. SFC Chalmers witnessed a detainee about to strike an MP in the head with a tentpole. Fearing for the MPs life , SFC Chalmers fired one shot. SPC Robben fired a 2-3 roundburst from his M249 to protect the MPs departing the B, C, and D compound area. Before acease-fire command could be called SPC Robben fired a second 2-3 round burst. Seven roundswere fired and 5 detainees were wounded.

6. Questions presented by the appointing authority.

a. How did the prisoners escape? There was no escape involved in this incident. If theprisoners were attempting to escape by storming the compound, the escape had just begun.

AETV -MPBSUBJECT: Corps Holding Area Disturbance and Subsequent Shooting of Detainees

b. What steps could have been taken to prevent these escapes? There were no escapes, but seeparagraph 6 , below, as to what could have happened to prevent the situation from escalating.

C. What was the response of the Military Police on duty? The summary of facts stated aboveshows the following response to the riot:

L) The detainee who first attacked the soldier was identified and extracted from Bcompound.

) The detainees in C compound that were throwing rocks were also identified andextracted.

) SFC Mitchell asked several MP' s to leave the area in an effort to quite the detainees.

) The ORF was not called out because the commotion happened in a split second. SGMCottman (BN S-3 shop) had just arrived and conferred with SFC Mitchell and they were trying tospeak to the detainees when the tent polls were grabbed.

) MP' s were instructed to pull back to the sally port area. During the pull back, some ofthe MP' s were cut off near D compound because they were instructed to hold their ground.

) An MP witnessed several detainees with tent polls leaving B, C & D compounds. ThatMP witnessed a detainee about to strike an MP in the head with a tent poll. Fearing for the MP'life, the MP fired one shot. The second MP fired two 2-3 round bursts to protect the MP' sdeparting the B , C & D compound area. These bursts were also aimed at one or more detaineesattempting to injure the withdrawing MP'

d. Was the response of the Military Police on duty reasonable, or was excessive force used?The force used was not excessive in light of the circumstances and many of the things that weredone were reasonable, but there were lapses in the reaction and deployment ofMP' s to quell thesituation. These are discussed in the "recommendations" section, below.

e. Is there an SOP in place to deal with this situation, and if so, was it followed? Yes, there isan SOP in place. The core SOP as it is written was followed. The overall SOP identified coreoperational tasks , but not specific sub-tasks for each MP function, either internal or externalMP' s. The SOP should be revised because of this incident by NCOs and reviewed on a bi-weekly bases.

f. Is there additional training that needs to be implemented to cover these situations? Yes.Training is great to keep soldiers prepared for situational response, but structural improvementsto the CHA will assist with controlling detainees and reducing potential riots or escapes.

Page 11: REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS BY INVESTIGATING OFFICER/BOARD …hrlibrary.umn.edu/OathBetrayed/Taguba Annex 5.pdf · REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS BY INVESTIGATING OFFICER/BOARD OF OFFICERS For use

AETV -MPBSUBJECT: Corps Holding Area Disturbance and Subsequent Shooting of Detainees

However, there needs to be more QRF training and actual response time training. There alsoneeds to be marksmanship training with non-lethal ammunition.

g. What actions, if any, were taken by the QRF? None.

6. Recommendation

a. The CHA needs communication at all levels of operations. The NCOIC of the CHA needscommunication with all compound MPs, sally port, processing area, QRF NCOIC and externalsccmity post. This should be hand held radios and the battery power to operate them.

b. A clear chain of command should be developed with defined responsibilities for CHAoperation. There was no reason for SGM Cottman to come down to the CHA. If SFC Mitchellwas in charge of CHA operations, then he should have been able to function as NCOIC of theCHA.

c. External security post should be built for better line of sight and a clear presence of force.Right now, the outer perimeter guards are positioned on Humvees at various locations outsidethe CHA. Because of the tents and position of the Humvees, outer perimeter guards cannotreally see into the compound. Line of sight is lost. The CHA needs guard towers that are 12' to18' high that the detainees can see.

d. The non- lethal equipment was not distributed to the current MP Company tasked with theQRF mission. The non- lethal equipment is now distributed, but more could be made availablefor training purposes. The MP' s in the compound should be provided with non-lethal meanssuch as OC pepper spray.

e. An SOP for CHA operations should be NCO developed and reviewed bi-weekly to updateoperational changes.

, BRUCE M COTTMAN , WANT TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT UNDER OATH:

On 9 June 03 at App: 1030 hours, I SGM Cottman responded to a verbal disturbance that took place inside the CHA atCamp Cropper. When I approached the CHA the CI' s were chanting very loudly (we want free), the MP' s assigned werestanding in the middle of the CHA observing the actions of the CI' s- I spoke with SFC Mitchell about the situation, I wasinformed that a fcw CI's were extracted from the blocks for throwing rocks. Also SFC Mitchell infonned me that herelieved some MP' s out of the CHA for being unprofessional. The MP' " pulled off post have been identified and are writingstatements about their actions. I spoke with some of the English speaking CI' s about what is causing the disturbance, mainlytheir complaint was the length of stay at the CHA, and not knowing their fate. During the communications with the CI' s inD Block, the CI' s started throwing rocks, boots , and water bottle filled with water and sand. At this time , by radio Iinformed the TOC ( CPT Keen) of the situation. The Cl' s in B Block then charged the gate and attempted to exit the BlockMP' S were trying to keep the gate secure , then D and C Block started trying to exit their block an did. It was APP: 20 to 40CI' s out of their blocks , some had tent poles rushing towards the MP' s. I informed the MP' s to stay on line and pull backthen I heard weapons fire. The MP' s and I walked backwards to A Block, out of the range of the objects being thrown. Thefiring of the weapons caused some of the CI's to return back to the blocks , it also gave the MP' s the advantage needed toregain order inside of the CHA. All of the CI' s were returned to their blocks , the ones with injuries were taken to medical.All United States soldiers involved were checked and asked for injuries. It is my belief that the firing of the weapons issupported by of our ROE, there was a chance of great hann or loss of life for United States Soldiers. END OFSTATEMENT
