Jay Bybee's "legal" memos were thrown out by the Bush administration.

Lawyers have been held accountable for the crime of pretending to legalize crimes before, see: US v. Joseph Altstoetter.

"I was following orders" is a Nazi excuse. CIA employees are civilians and don't get orders.
"I was following lawyers' advice" could permit absolutely anything because there is nothing a lawyer cannot be paid to say is legal.
The advice came after the torture began and the torture was never limited to the approved techniques.
Secret laws produced as royal decrees are not laws at all, but their drafting can be a crime, and in the case of Bybee's memos violated the Convention Against Torture.
