Thoreau wants the detainee interrogations videotaped:

Terrorism suspects should be treated like any other persons accused of murder or conspiracy to commit murder, and any sort of interrogation in those cases should be videotaped. Several years ago, an Illinois State Senator pushed for videotaping of police interrogations.  I hope that that fine State Senator is still the man that he was several years ago, and I hope he holds fast to those principles when deciding what to do about terrorism suspects. 

We did tape interrogations, and the tapes were destroyed.
