Torture was considered a valid interrogation technique....

Really? Where in the gospels did Jesus teach or command that?

They couldn't have just asked?

He, of course didn't, but neither did He teach chemistry, engineering or foreign languages. Torture was a part of the culture. We have a lot in today's culture that would utterly surprise a 1c Jew, and often, on the moral scale, we are the loser.
