A former FBI agent who says he witnessed harsh interrogations of a key terror suspect by CIA operatives calls such measures "ineffective." He testified at a U.S. Senate hearing Wednesday, May 13th, which featured legal arguments about whether such severe techniques were legal. As VOA's Robert Raffaele explains, the testimony was the latest in the growing debate over whether Bush administration officials who authorized such actions should be held accountable.
