Abstract:
The North Carolina Stop Torture Now coalition is the winner of a 2007 Indy Citizen Award. The group was created after learning of the Johnston County CIA contractors Aero Contractors’ involvement in the CIA’s torture program. The group believes torture is morally wrong as well as constitutionally forbidden and practically useless. The group has held several protests and is intent on convincing state and federal authorities that the charges against Aero Contractors warrant investigation and the CIA’s rendition program should be ended.
