#1 - Meet the U.S. Military Lawyer Who Took On His Country's Top Brass.

It's 2003. An Australian man is captured by US forces in Afghanistan and imprisoned at the US military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, on terrorism charges. 

The prisoner's defence lawyer is a United States Marine Corps lawyer named Dan Mori. 

He's about to be thrust onto the world stage in a fight against his own country's military and political establishment. 

(Update: The US government has revoked a plea deal with the men accused of plotting the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al-Hawsawi.)

Guest: Dan Mori, Legal Consultant, Shine Lawyers; LtCol, U.S. Marine Corps (Retired)
