Tortured Youth

Welcome Readers,

     This week in the news we learned about a man who entered his career with a Bachelors in History and Political Science, then later became a Police Detective quite infamous for beating confessions out of prisoners. This man then becomes a Counter-Terrorism Trainer for the Police Academy, where he hones his skills in Extended Interrogation Techniques. One day he gets the big call to work for the government at Abu Graib and instruct the Troops there in modern EIT's. Impressed with his work at Abu Graib the government sends him to personally oversee the interrogation of notorious Terrorist Mohamedou Ould Slahi at Guantanamo Bay. He performs with flying colors setting his name into the pages of history. This man is Richard Zuley.(photo,far left)
     A "Black Site" is a location at which an unacknowledged black project is conducted. Usually these are used abroad by the CIA to torture radical Islamists, but not anymore. One of these "Black Sites" has been located at the home base of Richard Zuley in the Hometown of President Obama, the Chicago Police Department. It is called Homan Square.
     Opened in 1999, Homan Square is reported to house evidence and recovered property in the front. It is also reported to be the home base of the Narcotics and Anti-Gang Unit. In the back, former prisoners tell harrowing tales of food deprivation, extreme temperatures, shackled beating of the face and groin and other EIT's for up to 3 days. All without access to a lawyer and while not officially being on any arrest records, so family members looking for them had no idea of their whereabouts. 
     When lawyers of the former prisoners asked why the secrecy of the site they were told there was "no denial of the existence of the building". A crack house is undeniably a building as well but we don't know its a crack house until we see the goings on inside. Currently the public is being denied access to the back of the building because of "sensitive" information regarding the identities of the undercover agents in the Narcotics and Anti-Gang Units. Neighborhood Protesters want the site shutdown.
