Yale Law Students Protest Judge Bybee
According to the Yale Daily News, 25 Yale law students donned bags so as to appear similar to hooded prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay to protest the presence of Judge Jay Bybee, who, while working for the White House in 2002, approved a memorandum (commonly known as the "torture memo") that narrowly defined torture as the infliction of "physical pain . . . equivalent in intensity to the pain accompanying serious physical injury, such as organ failure, impairment of bodily function, or even death."
The protestors, pictured here, left upon the request of organizer of the event, and Judge Bybee proceeded to speak for 30 minutes.
