The headline here is that the US govt publicly (last week in open court in front of media and observers) used detainee letters to their families, obtained only via @icrc.org functions, as evidence in favor of using torture-acquired evidence in a death penalty trial. @icrc.org, any thoughts?

Engle argued that the USG’s use of Mr. bin ‘Atash’s @icrc.org letters to his family was “reckless,” and pointed out that the @icrc.org had specifically instructed the parties not to use ICRC documents and information in litigation because it would undermine their humanitarian work.
