Torture

Via [livejournal.com profile] silverblue, a post here about the conditions in which Jose Padilla has been held. Note that Padilla is a US citizen who was arrested within the USA; it was three years before he was even charged.

No human contact, unless he was being interrogated.
No light.
Nothing to read.
Nothing to sleep on but a metal slab.
The only person in a naval brig; locked into a 10' cell.
For three years.
