A coworker who grew up in Pakistan was telling stories one day. He said the place that he grew up in had the best police in the whole world. There were no unsolved crimes. The police always got a confession.
XKCD-538 has an implied third panel:
Right guy: Wait, we can use the $5 wrench? Why not just hit him until he confesses and names all his friends as co-conspirators as per normal?
Left guy: Yes, let's skip the geeky stuff entirely. We will be done before lunch.
People that use torture are not interested in any sort of objective truth. Otherwise they would not do that.

Left guy: Yeah, and we can say that he also told us the names of his co-conspirators, who happen to be the people I owe money to, the annoying guy who lives next door to me, my ex-wife, and anyone I can think of from the minority group that I want to feel superior to.
