    I mean this happens all the time in the US. A teenager killed himself after being locked in solitary without a trial for aaaages.

    They even have laws about when you are not entitled to a legal represtative and when you can be held idefinitely.

    They also have an illegal detention centre on foreign communist soil to subvert their own laws.

    The UK has similar over reaching laws.

    Besides Tate was a flight risk so was held pending investigation.

      Don’t act like Guantanamo is related to it being on communist soil. We started renting it from Batista, the guy the Cuban revolution was against. The Cuban communists have never cashed a check for it and insist we’re illegally occupying it

      That other countries do it doesn’t make it not horrifying. Almost all your examples are horrifying.

      Only the last one isn’t. Being held pending trial if you threaten to flee the country? That makes sense.

        My last point why was why it wasnt horrifying.

        But I would argue being held pending trial and being held pending investigation are two dfferent beasts but in this case I am happy.
