Created by Andrew Daugherty for the Ethics of Science conference put on by High Tech High. Explores the use of hallucinogenic drugs for interrogation purposes.
@The360dot That's not how it works. The fact that they are looking for evidence suggests that there isn't enough to prosecute. In this country and the US you are INOCENT until proven guilty.
As for coersive techniques. I honestly don't know how i feel about their usage, it's an extremely gray area.
@KingofKlubs I agree with you. The human mind is indeed very complex and the information gathered would most likely be seen in black and white. There are so many different motives, explanations and ideas within everyone's head it is nearly impossible for anyone (at least with today's technology) to fully understand the true intentions of a person unless of course you are that person.
But with the human brain so complex and enigmatic (even to the experts) how could any information extracted this way be considered 100% reliable? What if, after having this drug administered to you, the interrogators uncovered an undirected, yet powerful anger/hatred deep in your subconsious, a remnant of an evolutionary response from early humans. You are not aware of it, and while it is perfectly normal and unconnected to any act of terrorism, it would stll be considered proof of your guilt.
If the suspect were me, it wouldn't matter if "they" could read my mind because I have never done anything wrong....when I say wrong, I don't mean simple things such as "white lies", I mean plotting to and blowing up buildings and people. As a matter of fact, if it would help weed out the terrorists, I would gladly sign up for it!! I want my family safe as everyone else wants their families safe. Common Sense 101
