White torture

Like everyone else, I have no particular sympathy for Zacarias Moussaoui, a useful idiot, who's been brainwashed before being trained in order to participate to the 9/11 attacks.

Now, he's been caught and sentenced to life imprisonment after he escaped the death penalty by the skin of a tooth. During his trial Be Laden exonerated him of any connection with the 9/11 events. Anyway, was the jury expected to take into consideration any declaration by Bin Laden?

Moussaoui, who actually didn't participate to the attacks since he was in jail at that time, has been condemned to a six consecutive life term.

He now serves his sentence in a Colorado high security facility, seeing no one, being locked 23 hours out of 24, with no visitors allowed (his mother included), in a 6m2 cell, with a black and white TV set providing only educational programs (in English) and I'm not sure he can see the light of day.

Once again I have no sympathy for the guy but was it necessary to burry him alive in some sort of coffin? He actually is no threat at all to the US. How not to consider the decision to inflict such drastic detention conditions upon him isn't motivated by the hidden desire to punish him with something close to white torture?

Having nothing to do, being stuck in a tiny place with facing the void as only prospect is the surest way to have him become totally mad. What's the point?
