re: "No one was tortured".....You couldn't be a bigger jackass....

"In 1983 Texas sheriff James Parker and three of his deputies were convicted for conspiring to force confessions. The complaint said they "subject prisoners to a suffocating water torture ordeal in order to coerce confessions. This generally included the placement of a towel over the nose and mouth of the prisoner and the pouring of water in the towel until the prisoner began to move, jerk, or otherwise indicate that he was suffocating and/or drowning."[5] The sheriff was sentenced to ten years in prison, and the deputies to four years.[4][5]"
