I soon learned just what the efficiency officer's techniques included: torture. Prisoners were disciplined for any little thing. If they weren't straight enough for the inspection, if they responded too slowly, if they spoke out of turn...If there was any reason for the efficiency officer to lash out against the prisoners, any opportunity...He would take it.

I had been isolated from the worst of things. I only saw the aftermath of the torture. Matthew, specifically, had a black eye. Not only that, but he was limping, and, upon further pressing, I found that he had been whipped, multiple times, with the efficiency officer's crop.

Hearing about the violence against the prisoners, against my friends, Matthew and Jessica, was bad enough.

One night I witnessed it.

(I can't finish this today. I apologize. I need to get away for the night. Tomorrow...I promise...)
