Just posted an interesting quote on torture on other thread will repost here.

RE: stun gun vs cattle prod.




'This is the worst thing - an electric cattle prod. They use this on your body. If they press that button, your whole body will be in shock. If they do it for too long, you lose consciousness but you do not die. If they press this button, you can die.

ditto on re-post

I wonder if anyone has done a comparison with ALL models of stun gun and cattle prod available at that time? Did Smit? I know he looked at one model but I don't know how many he compared...

The point of Smit thinking a stun gun was used was because there were two scratches on her leg that were evenly spaced apart like stun gun electrodes are - but these were scratches and could've been from something else that was sharp.

There are two more on the side of her face that don't look like those - one is very much larger and looks like a cigarette burn - but it is also an abrasion.
