I am writing a memo regarding whether or not starvation is an effective tactic for terrorist detainees, and then this pops up.
I want to know how this guy should die. Should we dangle a massive piece of fried chicken outside of his cell while playing white suburban music like Ben Folds? Pretend he is a terrorist and help me with my memo. 
300-pound inmate complains Ark. jail doesn't feed him well
An inmate awaiting trial on a murder charge is suing the county, complaining he has lost more than 100 pounds because of the jailhouse menu.
Broderick Lloyd Laswell says he isn't happy that he's down to 308 pounds after eight months in the Benton County jail. He has filed a federal lawsuit complaining the jail doesn't provide inmates with enough food.
"On several occasions I have started to do some exercising and my vision went blurry and I felt like I was going to pass out," Laswell wrote in his complaint. "About an hour after each meal my stomach starts to hurt and growl. I feel hungry again."
"If we are in a small pod all day (and) do next to nothing for physical exercise, we should not lose weight," the suit says. "The only reason we lost weight in here is because we are literally being starved to death."
