The country has seen revelations about off-books police interrogation warehouses in the past.

A new lawsuit filed in federal court last month alleges that the Baton Rouge Police Department ran a “torture warehouse” where members of its Street Crimes Unit strip searched, beat, and otherwise humiliated people and then released them, often without their being charged with a crime. Soon after the lawsuit was filed, the FBI opened a civil rights investigation into the allegations of misconduct at the now-shuttered warehouse known as “the BRAVE Cave.”

    I mean, okay. But it doesn’t change the fact that it’s true.

    Maybe it won’t work nationally, but when locals get tired enough of illegal policing that doesn’t work, the refund argument might work locally.
