Reed Brody is a Hungarian-American human rights lawyer and prosecutor. He specializes in helping victims pursue abusive leaders for atrocities, and has gained fame as the "Dictator Hunter". He was counsel for the victims in the case of the exiled former dictator of Chad, Hissène Habré – who was convicted of crimes against humanity in Senegal – and has worked with the victims of Augusto Pinochet and Jean-Claude “Baby Doc” Duvalier. He currently works with victims of the former dictator of Gambia, Yahya Jammeh. He is author of several books including To Catch a Dictator: The Pursuit and Trial of Hissène Habré.[1]
Early life and education
Brody was born in Budapest, Hungary, on July 20, 1953. His father, Ervin Brody, a Hungarian Jew, who was a major influence in his life,[2] survived forced labor in German camps during World War II, eventually escaping to join the Soviet Red Army and participate in the liberation of Budapest before emigrating to the United States and teaching at Fairleigh Dickinson University. His mother, Francesca Cash, was an artist and an arts teacher at a Brooklyn inner-city school.
Brody received his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Fairleigh Dickinson University where he was Student Government President and a leader in the anti-Vietnam War movement. He earned his J.D. degree from Columbia University School of Law. While a law student, Brody worked a year in Paris as a teaching assistant at the Université de Paris (Panthéon-Sorbonne). Brody holds an honorary doctorate from Fairleigh Dickinson University and was awarded a Public Interest Achievement Award by Columbia University Law School.
Career
After law school, Brody was the New York State Assistant Attorney General from 1980 to 1984 where he authored consumer protection laws and advocated on behalf of consumers and workers in class action-type suits against large corporations and financial institutions. He was called "the leading expert in the country on career-counseling malpractices.”[3]
Brody left his position as Assistant Attorney General to research and uncover a pattern of atrocities against Nicaraguan civilians by US-funded "contras". His report, Contra Terror in Nicaragua,[4] received national front-page coverage[5] and led to U.S. Congressional hearings and a temporary halt to contra funding. Brody conducted a speaking tour of over 60 U.S. cities and appeared as co-counsel with the Center for Constitutional Rights in litigation in U.S. federal court to stop U.S. aid to contras. His report was also introduced into evidence in the case Nicaragua v. United States at the International Court of Justice in The Hague. He was criticized by United States President Ronald Reagan, who described him as a Sandinista "sympathizer".[6]
From 1987 until 1992, Brody worked for the International Commission of Jurists in Geneva, as the Director of its Centre for the Independence of Judges and Lawyers (CIJL),[7] where he organized campaigns on behalf of harassed and detained jurists and engaged in high-level regional and national seminars on the independence of numerous judiciary systems around the world. He helped draft the UN Basic Principles on the Role of Lawyers which were adopted in 1991 and the same year was one of the advocates for the creation of the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention.[8] Together with P. N. Bhagwati, former Chief Justice of India, he assisted the government of Mongolia on behalf of the United Nations in preparing its 1991 constitution.
In 1992, Brody became Executive Director of the International Human Rights Law Group (which became Global Rights), where he served until 1994 placing activists in-country to train and empower locally based rights advocates in a dozen countries. In 1993, he was spokesman for the more than 3,000 NGO representatives at the UN World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna.[9] Brody then served as Director of the Human Rights Division of the United Nations Observer Mission in El Salvador (ONUSAL) from 1994 until 1995, where he led a staff of human rights officers and police observers responsible for verifying respect for human rights, monitoring compliance with peace accords, and coordinating international support to El Salvador’s judiciary and Human Rights Ombudsman.[10][11] He was also a member of the UN Preliminary Mission to establish a human rights verification mission in Guatemala (MINUGUA) in 1994.
In 1995, Brody helped found the Bureau des Avocats Internationaux in Haiti to prosecute human rights crimes committed during de facto military rule. The investigations he began led to the convictions of 57 military and paramilitary officers for the "Raboteau Massacre," the most significant rights prosecution in Haitian history.
Brody served as media liaison for the exiled Tibetan Women's Delegation at the 1995 UN Women’s Conference in Beijing whose harassment by the Chinese authorities became one of the symbols of the conference.[12] In 1995, he was expelled from occupied East Timor by Indonesian authorities.[13] He led an Amnesty International fact-finding mission to Sierra Leone (1996). As former Executive Secretary, he was a coordinator of the International Commission of Jurists' report Tibet: Human Rights and the Rule of Law, published in 1997.[14] He was a member of the U.S. National Criminal Justice Commission, which produced The Real War on Crime, published in 1996.[15]
In 1997, Brody was Deputy Director of the United Nations Secretary General’s Investigative Team in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, charged with probing atrocities committed by troops loyal to Laurent Kabila.[16]
Human Rights Watch
Brody was with Human Rights Watch from 1998 to 2016 and was an integral part of the organization’s efforts to hold perpetrators of large-scale human rights violations accountable for their crimes. Most notably, Brody directed Human Rights Watch’s participation in the landmark case of former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet before the British House of Lords. Brody called the Lords’ decision in the Pinochet case – that the Chilean did not enjoy immunity and could be prosecuted on the basis of universal jurisdiction despite his status as a former head of state – a "wake-up call" to tyrants and a “spark of hope for victims.”[17][18] In the wake of the Pinochet case, Brody began working with victims to pursue other former exiled leaders including Hissène Habré of Chad, Mengistu Haile Mariam of Ethiopia, Jean-Claude Duvalier and Raul Cédras of Haiti, and Idi Amin of Uganda. He wrote the Human Rights Watch booklet The Pinochet Precedent: How Victims can Pursue Human Rights Criminals Abroad.[19] Brody also participated in the 1998 Rome Conference which led the creation of the International Criminal Court.
Brody was an observer at the 2012 trial of Spanish judge Baltasar Garzón for refusing to apply Spain’s amnesty law and proceeding with an investigation into atrocities committed under Francisco Franco and during Spain’s civil war. Judge Garzón is best known for using the doctrine of universal jurisdiction to investigate war crimes and torture across national lines, most notably ordering the arrest of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet and seeking to indict members of the Bush administration for their role in torturing prisoners. Although Garzón was acquitted in the Franco-era trial, on 9 February 2012, the Supreme Court of Spain convicted Judge Garzón of illegally wiretapping conversations to discover evidence of illicit money laundering tactics being used by suspects and their lawyers.[20]
In April 2010, Brody spoke at a rally of over 60,000 in Madrid’s Puerta del Sol, noting the irony that Judge Garzón was prosecuted for attempting to apply the very principles that he had successfully promoted internationally.[21] Brody expressed indignation that Judge Garzón was the first judge in Spain to be put on trial for ordering wiretaps.[22]
In 2010, he assisted the Haitian government in building the case against former dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier, and he co-authored the HRW report Haiti’s Rendezvous with History: The Case of Jean-Claude Duvalier.[23] He is featured in a video on the case produced by Human Rights Watch.[24]
Brody attended legal proceedings at the US naval base in Guantanamo Bay Cuba in 2010. He is author of the July 2011 HRW report Getting Away with Torture[25] which examined the impunity of former US President George W. Bush and other top officials for the widespread mistreatment of Muslim prisoners, and of the book Faut-il Juger George Bush? based on the report. His other HRW reports on counter-terrorism issues include The Road to Abu Ghraib (June 2004),[26] which investigated the roots of the prisoner abuse scandal and The United States’ 'Disappeared' (October 2004),[27] which looked at the long-term incommunicado detention of al-Qaeda leaders in "secret locations".
Hissène Habré case
Since 1999, Brody has worked with the victims of Hissène Habré, the former dictator of Chad, to bring him and his accomplices to justice. Habré is convicted of thousands of political killings and systematic torture when he ruled Chad from 1982 to 1990 before fleeing into exile in Senegal.[28]
Habré was first indicted by a Senegalese judge in 2000, and in 2001 Brody and his colleague Olivier Bercault uncovered the files of Habré’s political police in an abandoned building in Chad,[29] which revealed the names of 1,208 people who were killed or died in detention, and 12,321 victims of arbitrary detention and other abuses. But for the next 12 years, the Senegalese government of President Abdoulaye Wade subjected the victims to what the Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu described as an “interminable political and legal soap opera”[30] which forced the victims to seek justice in Belgium, and would involve the United Nations Committee against Torture, the Court of Justice of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the African Union and the International Court of Justice. After what the Toronto Globe and Mail called “one of the world’s most patient and tenacious campaigns for justice"[31] waged by the victims with Brody’s support, Habré’s trial by a special African Union-backed court in Senegal finally began on July 20, 2015 and ended on February 11, 2016. On May 30, 2016, the court convicted[32] Habré for crimes against humanity, including torture, rape and sexual slavery, and sentenced him to life imprisonment. It was the first time ever that a former head of state had been prosecuted for human rights crimes in the courts of another country. The New York Times, among others, hailed the case as “a Milestone for justice in Africa.” On April 27, 2017, an appeals court confirmed the verdict and ordered Habré to pay approximately US$130 million in victim compensation. It mandated an African Union trust fund to raise the money by searching for Habré’s assets and soliciting contributions.
Also as a result of the victims’ campaign, on March 25, 2015, a Chadian criminal court convicted 20 Habré-era security agents on charges of murder, torture, kidnapping and arbitrary detention.[33] The court also awarded 75 billion CFA francs (US$119 million) in reparations to 7,000 victims, ordering the government to pay half and the convicted agents the other half.
Since the verdicts, Brody has continued to work with the victims for implementation of the courts’ reparation decisions. In September 2022, Chad’s presidency announcing that the government had allocated 10 billion CFA francs ($16.5 million) for the AU Trust Fund. According to the AU, however, that money has not been received. On May 2, 2023, Chad’s transitional president, Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno, told a delegation from the victims’ association that he had asked the finance minister to make Chad’s contribution available to the victims.
In November 2022, Brody wrote about the case in “To Catch a Dictator: The Pursuit and Trial of Hissène Habré.”[34] The Washington Post called the book “An absorbing saga that raises a disturbing question: How do brutal fascists like Habré and other murderous heads of state evade a courtroom reckoning for so long after falling from power?”[35]
Post-HRW
Brody is active in human rights causes in the United States. In October 2016, he represented the journalist Amy Goodman, host of the television and radio show Democracy Now!, who was charged with criminal offenses for her reporting on an attack against Native American-led anti-pipeline protesters at Standing Rock, North Dakota. The charges were dropped[36]
In January 2017, Brody was elected to the International Commission of Jurists. He is also on the Boards of Democracy for the Arab World Now (DAWN), the Rose Lokissim Association and the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights.
In 2017, he began working with victims of the former dictator of Gambia Yahya Jammeh who is now in exile in Equatorial Guinea. Brody organized a meeting between the victims of Hissène Habré and the victims of Yahya Jammeh[37] and helped launch the “Campaign to Bring Yahya Jammeh and his Accomplices to Justice”- (“#Jammeh2Justice").[38] In May 2018, he spearheaded an investigation which revealed that 56 West African migrants, mostly from Ghana, had been killed by a death squad taking orders from Jammeh.[39] His June 2019 investigation uncovered a state-sponsored system in which women were brought to Jammeh who then abused them and reported the cases of three women who accused Jammeh of rape and sexual abuse.[40] These investigations fed into the work of Gambia’s landmark Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission (TRRC) which in 2021 recommended that Jammeh and his henchmen be prosecuted.
Brody also worked with the Gambia Bar Association on a series of multi-stakeholder consultations beginning in 2019 to examine how to follow up on any prosecution recommendations by the TRRC. These discussions resulted in a consensus in favor of a “hybrid” court, anchored on a treaty with ECOWAS.[41] In 2023, the Gambia government and ECOWAS took on board the proposal and created a joint task force to work towards a hybrid tribunal to prosecute the worst crimes of the Jammeh era.[42]
He also helped initiate a criminal case in Argentina against Saudi Arabia’s visiting Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.[43]
Brody, who currently lives in Barcelona and Carcassonne, is a regular commentator on French and Spanish media on issues of war crimes, international relations and US politics.
Publications and academia
In addition to “To Catch a Dictator,” Brody has authored Faut-il Juger George Bush?, The Pinochet Papers: The Case of Augusto Pinochet in Britain and Spain, Tibet: Human Rights and the Rule of Law, and Contra Terror in Nicaragua. His articles have appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe, Le Monde, Le Soir, and El País, among others.
Brody has taught law as a lecturer and adjunct professor at Columbia University Law School and American University’s Washington College of Law and been a guest lecturer at the law schools of Cornell, Georgetown, Harvard, NYU, Wisconsin and Yale.
