Giant murals of Saddam Hussein cover the walls of what was once the fearsome Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad. The prison, now dubbed Baghdad Central, is under the command of Brig. Gen. Janis Karpinski, the only female U.S. commander in Iraq.

Several hundred people are in coalition custody at Baghdad Central where Saddam Hussein's enemies were tortured and hanged.

Clothing from an Iraqi political prisoner is tied to a cell window in the death chamber at the former Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad. Swatches of uniforms were left in memory of the prisoners.

BAGHDAD - A few weeks ago, Janis Karpinski was in the middle of a briefing when a man suddenly reached out and grabbed her.

1. Anyone catch the Norville interview with this General? Is she Credible?

It's hard to tell. On the one hand she takes little responsibility for the prisoners, on the other hand she says the "prisoners in question" were in a "Cell Block Completely controlled by CIA/Military Intelligence."

Is she another "Female Fall Guy/Gal like "Martha," for the misdeads of other?
