Note to Law Prof: Torture is NOT Part of the Napoleanic Code

Timshel links to an Advocate article about the now infamous Justice Department memos justifying torture.

The author of one memo is Jay S. Bybee, former Law professor at El Ess Euwe--his subject was constitutional law.

Hmmn. Looks like the professor could use a refresher course--if not a cooling off period. Given Bybee's latest work (federal judge in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Las Vegas), I'll bet he's got at least a passing familiarity with a number of high walled, rural hideaways.
