Suspect threatened with torture to help locate kidnapped child! Police on trial.

[Jacobi]

A former Frankfurt deputy police chief took the stand on Thursday to answer charges he threatened a suspect with torture. The defendant says he got permission from a state interior ministry to make the threat.

For Wolfgang Daschner, the choice on Oct. 1, 2002 was between following the letter of the law, or perhaps saving the life of a kidnapped child. In the end, he opted to try to save the child and set off a roiling debate over the law and its limits, and where one draws the line in matters of life and death.
