Lt. Col. Yvonne Bradley bio

Lt. Col. Yvonne Bradley is a United States Air Force Attorney who vigorously represented former detainee, Binyam Mohamed, a former British resident. All charges were dropped by the US Government. Mohamed was among the Guantanamo detainees who went on hunger strike to protest against the conditions and their lack of access to a judicial review. In February 2009, Bradley flew to London and publicly pleaded for the British government to step in and save Mohamed’s life.
