Attenuation of the Taint


1. an enhanced interrogation technique, notoriously employed at the abu-ghraib prison, involving the pulling of the scr-t-m and -n-l cavity in opposite directions, with the goal of inflicting pain to a suspect’s crotch region. unlike with typical torture methods, any information obtained through this practice will be admissible in a criminal proceeding, as it is as an exception to the “fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine”.

2. a long-term medical condition, typically caused by successful subjection to such a technique.
for determining attenuation of the taint, see people v. thomas (1980) 112 cal.app.3d 980, 986 (observing that “what const-tutes ‘exploitation’ on the one hand and what fact or facts will lead a court to say that the taint has become attenuated, cannot be determined by pressing a b-tton: the answer depends on reason and precedent.”)
