This is a little off the track, but I'm wondering if you have any examples of a case where degredations or other legally dubious means have gathered intel that my have potentially saved lives. From everything I've heard, extreme forms of interrogation don't yield results. In addition, I've never heard of an instance where a few minutes was the difference between life and death. I don't understand why these methods would be considered from a purely practical standpoint. If regular interrogation methods work just as well or better, then why use the legally dubious sorts?
