Killers and victims are interviewed as to the deaths and disappearances of hundreds of people. Their testimonies are streamed on YouTube, Facebook, TV and radio, directly into phones and homes around the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Viewers recently listened raptly as Malick Jatta confessed to shooting one of Gambia\u2019s best-known journalists. He said the kill order came right from the former president. \u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d he said, and hung his head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/UhWrnRFVCDU\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Admitted killers are being released after their testimony.

The hearings, which began in January, are expected to last two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the victims were two American citizens \u2013 Alhagie Ceesay and Ebou Jobe. The former was a Chevron employee who lived in Houston. Mr. Jobe, a father of three, worked for Wal-Mart. Confessions were also produced for the killing of 56 West African migrants, accused of being mercenaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Omar Jallow, a hit squad member, testified that Mr. Jammeh had ordered that <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/UhWrnRFVCDU\">the Americans <\/a>be killed and \u201cchopped into pieces.\u201d His team then \u201ctook plastic bags and they put them over their heads and they strangulated them\u201d then \u201ccut off their heads,\u201d before burying them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5506089157017573\" data-ad-slot=\"1517254432\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end, the commission will make recommendations as to who holds the greatest responsibility for atrocities, and the attorney general will decide whom to prosecute.
