During Argentina's Dirty War, in the '70s, it was common for RW civilians - usually doctors, lawyers, and even priests - to take part in torture sessions.

They would often show up after a few minutes to both elicit information (assuming the victim had any) in a kind of good cop-bad cop tactic - as well as to give the victims false hope that the pain would now be over.

Only to, of course, laugh and gloat over the victim once it started up again.

That would be Ron deSaster.
