Have you ever sat in a small room, by yourself, with nothing to do, for 24 hours? It's no picnic.

But regardless, what length of time do you think is needed before it could be termed torture? And whatever your answer is, I hope you'd agree that opinions might differ on what that length of time is.

I absolutely agree the length of time and opinions might differ.

He's in prison, it's not supposed to be a picnic. It's also not supposed to be torture. But 24 hours, strikes me as an adult "time-out". He'll be asleep for 8 or more hours of that - more because he's bored, what else is he going to do.
