As the CIA torture sessions became more brutal and failed to produce useful information, CIA staff in the field complained to CIA Headquarters about the brutality and legality of using the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques. CIA Headquarters instructed officers in the field to continue with the torture tactics and urged field officers not to put their concerns in writing. The director of the CIA Counterterrorism Center, Jose Rodriguez, wrote: "Strongly urge that any speculative language as to the legality of given activities or, more precisely, judgment calls as to their legality vis-a-vis operational guidelines for this activity agreed upon and vetted at the most senior levels of the agency, be refrained from in written traffic (email or cable traffic). Such language is not helpful."
