WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has closed an inquiry into CIA interrogations of terrorist detainees without bringing criminal charges.

Thursday's decision, in the probes of the deaths of two terrorist suspects, marks the end a wide-ranging criminal investigation by federal prosecutor John Durham into interrogation practices during the presidency of George W. Bush.

In the past three years, Durham has looked into the treatment of 101 detainees in U.S. custody since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
