Hayden
“Waterboarding cannot take place any more than five days out of a total of 30 days. There cannot be more than two sessions per day. A session is described as being strapped to the board. No session can last longer than two hours. In any session, there can be no more than six pourings of the water greater than ten seconds in duration. Under no circumstances can any detainee be under the pouring of the water a total of more than twelve minutes in any 24-hour period, and one pouring cannot exceed, one application cannot exceed 40 seconds.”

CIA Report
This testimony is incongruent with CIA interrogation records. For example, KSM was waterboarded on nine separate days over a two-week period. On March 13, 2003, KSM was subjected to three waterboard sessions in one day. Over March 12-13, 2003, he was subjected to five waterboard sessions in 25 hours. During that same period, he was subjected to the pouring of water for more than twelve minutes during a 24-hour period.

Hygiene, Hayden
“Detainees have never been denied the means — at a minimum, they’ve always had a bucket to dispose of their human waste.”

CIA
This testimony is incongruent with CIA records. CIA detainees, particularly those subjected to standing sleep deprivation, were routinely placed in diapers. Waste buckets were not always available. In the interrogation of Abu Hazim, a waste bucket was removed from his cell for punishment. According to a CIA cable, Abu Hazim “requested a bucket in which he could relieve himself, but was told all rewards must be earned.”
