On March 3, 2022 in a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court dismissed Abu Zubaydah's petition, reversing the Ninth Circuit's 2019 decision, requesting the testimony of psychologists James Mitchell and John Jessen, whom the CIA hired to orchestrate his torture at a secret CIA prison ("CIA black site") in Poland from December 2002 until September 2003,  reported yesterday.
