CIA tapes and losing credibility

This article says we might be losing credibility in our Justice Department because of the destruction of those interrogation tapes. I think that given that those tapes were of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay and have been there without any form of due process for the better part of a decade, that the destruction of the tapes is just further proof of what people already know: that our Justice Department will do whatever it has to to pursue what it feels is right, no matter how that violates the rights of others.
