Tortured in the San Jose Main Jail
An Interview with Martín Rodriguez
Martín Rodriguez is a San Jose citizen who was arrested last summer on questionable drug charges. He says he was tortured twice in the San Jose Main Jail, where he spent 115 days. Rodriguez's public defender demanded he plead guilty, but he is now seeking adequate representation for a plea of innocent. His cause has been taken up by the Barrio Defense Committee, an activist group dedicated to protecting the Latino community from police misconduct. Peter Maiden interviewed Rodriguez in Spanish and offers this report.
