Newly gathered e-mails could provide a different view on who could have prevented the deaths of six civilian truck drivers during a 2004 attack of a KBR convoy in Iraq. A Houston judge initially ruled that the U.S. Army had control over the deployment of the convoy, but new-found e-mails may point the other way. According to the Houston Chronicle, e-mails have been uncovered that suggest many KBR supervisors did not believe they were constrained by military orders — a constraint that is central to KBR’s defense in the federal case. U.S. District Judge Gray Miller is expected to rule soon on whether the case will proceed to trial in 2010 or be dismissed again.
