This is insane and does this only justify the job of the BPP? Sounds to me like that is what is going on. Say, you are sorry for something and get to go home or say you did not do what you were accused of and continue to be locked up. This is torture and should be stopped. <BR/><BR/>The BPP needs to be cleaned out starting with Rissie Owens, who thinks she is the queen of something. She needs to be put in her place and made to stay there. Who does she answer to? It appears no one! <BR/><BR/>There is not doubt our Judicial System is sick and needs to be overhauled from the Judges who sit in court, DAs who only want to win and also to the lawyers who take money from families and then do nothing. I am totally ashamed of what is going on with our judicial system and the abuse, torture and treatment given to Inmates is totally wrong and those who commit these acts will have to answer to a higher Judge one day for their actions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-1170260267141936132007-01-31T10:17:00.000-06:002007-01-31T10:17:00.000-06:00The Soviet Union used the same technique on subver...The Soviet Union used the same technique on subversives. If they admitted their guilt for nonexistent crimes, their rehabilitation would begin. If they insisted they were innocent, the process would start anew, time, and time, and time again.<BR/><BR/>This is simply an example of torture, and it is violent, since it forces people to remain in cages against their will, and obedience is coerced by the threat of force, including deadly force.<BR/><BR/>Many parents use the same torture technique on their children, accusing them of misdeeds they didn't commit, then forcing them to confess so that they will be punished, but punished less than if they protested their innocence.<BR/><BR/>Personally, my opinion of practitioners of this is that there's nothing wrong with them that rope won't cure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
