Lawyers for Blackwater Guards to Fight New Charges

The Blackwater guards…will argue prosecutors unlawfully built the new case on protected statements the guards made after the shooting, defense lawyers said at a hearing today. The guards were first charged in 2008, but that case fell apart after a judge found the government improperly relied on the guards' statements.
