Robert Mueller

The chilling story of Abu Zubaydah, the first high-value detainee subjected to the CIA’s program of Enhanced Interrogation Techniques, later identified as torture by those outside the agency. Having never been charged with a crime or allowed to challenge his detention, Zubaydah remains imprisoned at Guantánamo Bay in Kafkaesque limbo, in direct contravention of America’s own ideals of justice and due process.

Pulling back the curtain on the complex and high stakes relationship between the FBI Director and U.S. President, this series explores their pivotal moments of tension, the FBI's delicate neutrality and its national security implications.
