There are cases of completely innocent people ending up in Guantanamo purely by mistaken identity and being arbitrarily detained and tortured for years. Others are likely there only on account of faulty intelligence. As far as I recall, none (or only very few) of the detainees have actually been tried or convicted of anything...

There's a sad story of a guy who got released from Guantanamo. No one wanted to take him back, including the country he grew up in. I think he got sent to Serbia or Kosovo or something and he's not allowed to work, basically do anything. Anyone who associates with him gets harassed. Basically lives off a small stipend in a cramped studio and the police prevent him from doing much more than walking down the block to buy something to eat. Hopefully someone here can point out the video because I've forgotten his name. Edit: found it, here's the story https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61609417 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61609417
