Did the US Military beat Afghan detainees to death?
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Military coroners have determined that the deaths of two detainees while in U.S. custody in Afghanistan were homicides, CNN has confirmed.
A criminal investigation into the December deaths of the two men is in its final stages, but a U.S. military source said it is not clear whether anyone will be charged.
One senior military official said, "This investigation may not go well for us."
Autopsies found that "blunt force trauma" was a contributing factor in both cases, military sources said.
