No bail for Taylor's son in torture case
So, these people are seeking justice and finding it and I believe the Iraqis will be also. The terrorist should have no where to hide very soon. It is my continuous prayer.

      No bail for Taylor's son in torture case

      By CURT ANDERSON
      ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

      MIAMI -- A federal judge denied bail Friday for former Liberian President Charles Taylor's son, who was indicted last week on torture charges stemming from his time as head of a security force in his father's government.

      U.S. Magistrate Judge William Turnoff ruled that Charles McArthur Emmanuel, 29, was a danger to the community and a risk of fleeing the charges. Emmanuel has used several aliases, including Charles "Chuckie" Taylor Jr., and was charged as a youth in Orlando with several violent crimes.

      Prosecutors say Emmanuel, as chief of the Anti-Terrorism Unit in the Taylor government, abducted and tortured a Liberian man in 2002 by pressing a hot iron into his flesh, using electric shocks and rubbing salt into the victim's wounds. Emmanuel has pleaded not guilty.

      Human rights organizations and Liberian exiles say the unit was responsible for widespread murder, torture, kidnapping, looting and recruitment of child soldiers while Emmanuel was its commander.

      Even if he had won bail, Emmanuel would not have been released immediately because he is serving an 11-month sentence for giving a fake name for his father on a passport application. Emmanuel was arrested in March at Miami International Airport after arriving on a flight from Trinidad.

      Taylor faces trial before a special United Nations tribunal next year in The Hague, Netherlands, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity for alleged acts during Sierra Leone's bloody 10-year civil war.
