Anti-fast food zealots and human rights lawyers might have something to say about the torturous acts inflicted on accused murderer Jermaine Burgess to get him to confess to his crimes.
Upper Darby detectives plied him with McDonald's fat-laden and colesterol-stuffed food inducing him to spill his guts about two murders.
Known as "Supersizing the Suspect" in police parlance, the skell is force to return to his cell craving McDonald's burgers and fries if he doesn't talk. Police also offer cigarettes to addicted smokers to elicit information and confessions.
Such treatment is not yet banned by any international treaty on the treatment of prisoners but it is only a matter of time.
