Bad time for a party, and to go without water.

I hope he's compensated for any medical complications as a result of drinking urine and eating meth. They shouldn't even try to get off without paying him.
I hope he figures out what he wants to do with his life too. |

It's not only cruel, it can kill you in about a week. The kidney failure is likely a result of the dehydration rather than the meth.
If he has any permanent kidney impairment he ought to sue the hell out of the DEA. |

Yes that two you can go longer with out food but going a long time with out water is a good way to harm yourself. |

 Not all Lawmen are like that. There are two sides to every story and they admitted their mistake.

I could imagine that happening to me and I'd probably never even call out for help because I'd just figure that they were doing it on purpose and if I called for help they would either ignore me, laugh at me, or come in and beat me.
The one time I was in jail I went nearly 24 hours without anything to drink and felt pretty crummy but there was no way I was going to say anything to the police or guards about it. I just had to suffer in silence. They never offered me anything at the police station and then in my cell it took me a long time to get the sink to work because the faucets were so hard to turn. |

I'm surprised the cops admitted it.
They could have claimed the meth was the prisoner's, that he ate it to keep them from finding it, and that he only THOUGHT he wasn't receiving food and water because he was high. |

His only "crime" was to smoke pot, which is something that even the president of the USA has done in his youth. This young man -- an engineering student, not a hooded gang member -- didn't harm anybody, he didn't steal anything, he didn't even lie to the DEA enforcers. Even without the torture, his imprisonment is an indefensible act of police abuse that should be sharply condemned by Amnesty International and other human rights organisations. |

Ingesting urine can also cause kidney failure. Urine contains toxins and metabolic waste products that the kidneys have already filtered out, and when these toxins are re-ingested, the kidneys have to do twice as much work. And thrice as much work the next time around, and so on. After a while, the kidneys just can't cope anymore.
(That's why I cringe every time I read about the so-called urine therapy that is advocated by some alternative practicioners. They love to claim things like "urine is sterile and safe to ingest". Both claims are nonsense; it is only sterile while it remains in the bladder, and it's definitely not safe to drink. And of course there are no medical benefits to drinking urine. Harmful, pseudo-medical advise like this goes unpunished, and people who burn plant buds in the privacy of their homes go to jail.... what a world. Sorry for the derail). |

Drano is sterile too, so is swimming pool acid. |

Had he died, they probably would have said that.
