108 People Have Died in US Custody
It's old news (from March this year), but none-the-less horrific. 108 detainees have died in US custody, 26 of them murder (as of that date - could be more by now)
If you're feeling up to it, you can read about their injuries here. I think unless you were present though, it must be impossible to even imagine the sheer horror and cruelty of what must have gone on.
Surely at least one of these must qualify as torture as defined by Bush?
A few more related news reports here and here, and lots of interesting facts here.
