Barack Obama has promised that he will close down the prison camps at Guantanamo Bay however it is unclear so far as to what measures will be taken concerning the prisoners currently being held. Not until Obama's legal and national security teams are assembled will there be a definite decision on the prisoners' fates. However, there has been talk of Obama's possible ideas. There has been discussion of trying the prisoners in already existing federal courts or creating a federal court specialized for this case. Worry has been expressed about bringing these dangerous prisoners to the mainland because of the institutions needed to detain them. Before any decision is made though, Obama has said that he needs to review all the existing cases which he has not yet had the chance to do.
