This is terrifically frightening if it's at all true... The Guardian is reporting that the Chicago police department used a "black site" to deny those in custody from availing themselves of their constitutional rights: performing rough interrogation of prisoners, hiding them so that there was no record in the system of their incarceration, and keeping them from having access to their lawyers.

Again, it at all true, this is why the increasing militarization of police forces has become a danger for us all.
