been arrested, now the court system is considering if there is enough
evidence to bring them to trial. Better study up more on the American
legal system. And if you consider the "Bad cop / Good cop" routine to be
abuse, you will consider all interrogation abuse. This abuse (?) is
nowhere the abuse that the Iranians and even the Iraqis considered abuse.
Stone a woman to death because she was outside without a blanket (burka)
covering her, etc. Electrial shock for prisoners.

So if the US cops cut your balls off and stuff them in your mouth, they
haven't really abused you because you are still alive, not stoned to death.
And if they rape your wive in front of you, you are BOTH still alive
(DEFINITELY not abuse, because you haven't had any electrical shocks).
There are a lot of things that are abusive. Just because there are people
who do worse doesn't mean that it is OK for the cops to be "a little
abusive".
