About the author
Susan Lindauer
6 books18 followersSusan Lindauer is an American journalist and antiwar activist. In 2003 she was falsely accused of conspiring to act as an unregistered agent for the Iraqi Intelligence Service and engaging in prohibited financial transactions with the government of Iraq under Saddam Hussein.
Lindauer was found mentally unfit to stand trial in two separate hearings. During her incarceration she won the right to refuse forced antipsychotic medication which the United States Department of Justice claimed would render her competent to stand trial.
In testimony before Judge Mukasey on May, 9, 2006, Dr. Colin Vas from Carswell FMC admitted that over seven months of incarceration, staff observed no signs of hallucinations and no signs of hearing voices, nor any depression or bipolar disorder. Carswell reported that Ms. Lindauer walked 4-6 miles on the track every day, and consistently participated at 'indoor recreation activities.' Ms.Lindauer also spent many hours at the prison law library studying up on her case. In its monthly reports, Carswell wrote: 'Good physical health. Socializes well. Good intellectual functioning.' And 'no behavioral problems.'
On January 16, 2009, the government decided to not continue with the prosecution saying 'prosecuting Lindauer would no longer be in the interests of justice.'
Antipsychiatrist Thomas Szasz criticized the government's treatment of Lindauer and referred to her captors as 'torturers.'
