A former guard known as the ringleader in the physical abuse and sexual humiliation of Iraqi prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq was released from the same prison Bradley Manning is being held in on Saturday.

Charles Graner Jr., a U.S. Army reservist, was convicted in January 2005 of indecent acts, dereliction of duty, conspiracy to commit maltreatment and assault consummated by battery.

Graner, from Uniontown, Pennsylvania, was credited with good conduct.

What's the price to pay for photographing a detainee being dragged by another guard by a leash wrapped around the prisoner's neck and posing for a photograph behind a pyramid of naked prisoners? Ohh about 6 ½ years at the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas where PFC. Bradley Manning is currently being held without trial while the government builds a conspiracy case against him.

So what's the lesson today children?
