It's Good to be King

Two Californians are being charged with felony torture and are facing life in jail for each count. They are civilians and allegedly lured two loan modification specialists to an office, tied them up, held them for hours and beat them senseless in the presence of three others, who are being charged as accessories for not trying to stop the torture.

Life in prison for these people, but seven-figure speaking fees for the former president, who with his underlings created and maintained a complex system of torture and intentional cruelty to hundreds of prisoners, nearly freezing them to death, stress positions, waterboarding, induced psychosis through sensory deprivation, denying sleep, and outright killing.

It's good to be the King. You are above the rule of law.
