Answer:

The Stanley Milgram experiment shows us that good hearted people are capable of doing harm to others if they're told so by authority figures. This applies to the events at Abu Ghraib because some of the soldiers who were involved in the prison abuse may have went along with their superiors, followed their lead, or were told explicitly to abuse the prisoners.
