Torture: It's not just for Abu Ghraib anymore

Prisoner abuse is routine in American prisons. They didn't just suddently invent the concept at Abu Ghraib. Over the past six months, I did an intensive study of prisoner abuse in Philadelphia area prisons, and I'll be publishing my findings in an upcoming column in the Philadelphia Daily News. I'll republish it here after the DN's 3-day exclusive rights expire.

In the meantime, a new video is available online exposing Abu Ghraib-like torture of prisoners in Texas. [Read about it and/or watch the video - if your stomach can handle it.]
