Military Police Moved from Incarceration Staff and Placed Under Military Intelligence (MI)

After General Miller's visit to Iraq in September 2003, the military police (MP) were removed from General Janet Karpinski's command and moved to the interrogation staff.  The MPs were now made to soften up the detainees so they would be more likely to give up information when they were interrogated.  Civilian contractors such as Military Intelligence (MI) and Other Government Agency (OGA)  would come in and instruct the MPs to keep the prisoners awake using whatever means necessary.

According to the film, The Ghosts of Abu Ghraib, MPs were instructed to do things that they felt were morally and ethically wrong.  They were instructed by MI to use stress positions, loud music, keep the detainees fully nude and laugh at them.  The MPs were told to use their imaginations and to do whatever they wanted to keep the prisoners awake.
