Occupy Los Angeles at the end of November, they (and LA Sherrif's deputees) held arrestees on buses for many hours with no access to bathroom facilities, such that several arrestess had to soil themselves. Anecdotal reports had police laughing about it.

This brings to mind Antonin Artaud's Theater of Cruelty or the master-slave dynamic between Lucky and Pozzo in Beckett's "Waiting for Godot."
