“Melvin and Pauline Morse of Georgetown, Delaware, have been charged with four felony counts of child abuse. Their 11-year-old daughter has accused her father of repeatedly waterboarding her as a form of punishment. The mother allegedly witnessed these incidents and did not intervene. This is not the first time a parent has been accused of using that torture method as a form of punishment. One press account notes that waterboarding is ‘a form of torture banned in the United States.’ This is true only as applied to private citizens.”
