Email between FBI components Behavioral Analysis Unit and Critical Incident Response Group re: DOD request for BAU support

May 4, 2005 | FBI | ACLU-RDI 2891
Email from individual who indicates he is "TDY at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba," which has "a key and close working relationship with DOD, specifically JTF-170. DOD has designated JTF-170 as the command responsible for developing intelligence from the detainees." Sender then identifies two "issues or requests" that DOD has raised, which are redacted. Sender indicates that DOD is seeking assistance from FBI BAUs on these questions. FBI response expresses willingness for the Behavioral Analysis Units to help out at Guantanamo. "The behavioral analysis process we use to evaluate individuals and their motivations, including incentives to cooperate with those conducting interviews and interrogations, could prove helpful to both issues you present. The Behavioral Analysis Units regularly provide interview and interrogation strategies in a wide array of domestic and international matters that could add some value to your tasks at hand."
