Ivan Frederick II is a former staff sergeant in the United States Army. He was the highest in rank of the seven U.S. military police personnel who have been charged with torturing prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. He was the senior enlisted soldier at the prison from October to December 2003.
Prior to his deployment to Iraq, Frederick was a corrections officer at Buckingham Correctional Center in Dillwyn, Virginia.
Ivan Frederick's testimony before the court directly accused the Pentagon and its top managers and officials declaring them knowledgeable of everything that happened there and even more to order it in order to obtain information.
In May 2004, Frederick pleaded guilty to conspiracy, dereliction of duty, maltreatment of detainees, assault, and indecent acts. He was sentenced to 8 years confinement and loss of rank and pay, and he received a dishonorable discharge.
He was released on parole in October 2007, after spending four years in prison.Video
