Finally, Jones says, she convinced a sympathetic guard to loan her a cell phone so she could call her father in Texas.
"I said, ''Dad, I''ve been raped. I don''t know what to do. I''m in this container, and I''m not able to leave,''" she said. Her father called their congressman, Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas.
"We contacted the State Department first," Poe told ABCNews.com, "and told them of the urgency of rescuing an American citizen" -- from her American employer.
Poe says his office contacted the State Department, which quickly dispatched agents from the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad to Jones'' camp, where they rescued her from the container.
According to her lawsuit, Jones was raped by "several attackers who first drugged her, then repeatedly raped and injured her, both physically and emotionally."
Jones told ABCNews.com that an examination by Army doctors showed she had been raped "both ******lly and anally," but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to KBR security officers.
A spokesperson for the State Department''s Bureau of Diplomatic Security told ABCNews.com he could not comment on the matter.
Over two years later, the Justice Department has brought no criminal charges in the matter. In fact, ABC News could not confirm any federal agency was investigating the case.

Maybe she is lying, maybe she is telling the truth. Maybe we will find out the truth, maybe we won''t. I''m still planning on having a Merry Christmas with my family. I wish the same to you.

Obviously the assets of terrorist/pirate networks like Halliburton and Blackwater should be seized and liquidated, to help pay for some of the damage that they have done, and their executives tried for war profiteering, fraud, and treason.

The Bush administration, including their ties to Halliburton is completely without morals. I have to laugh everytime I think about the "Christian" right sucking up to Bush, and him sucking up to them. Bush is no Christian, in fact, is much the opposite. Keep it up, right-wingers. Focus on ga ys and abortion, while electing evil to lead our country.

"In a statement, KBR said it couldn''t comment on specifics of the case but that the safety and security of its employees were its top priority. " you mean DENY EVERYTHING..that the plausible thing to do.
