And if whoever is holding him knows he is innocent then why are they still holding him? And if they know he is innocent but are still holding him, why would any one besides the detainers or detainee know that he is innocent? And what do you mean by innocent? Like someone who had never had a terrorist thought in their mind, was herding sheep and just got caught up in the dragnet? Assuming that somehow the US government was holding someone that was innocent, and it became common knowledge that they were innocent, from a pure moral perspective, the case should be looked into, but it would have nothing to do with Habeas Corpus. If they were completely innocent they should be let free. Does that answer your question? :rock:
