P/E Down continued. I was asked if I could remember when I last
felt love? When I last laughed? Last felt Happy? When I last felt like I was worth something? Interrogators compared lifestyle difference between Camp Delta and Camp X-ray Camp Delta – Could live in a cell
and communicate with others; could read if I wanted to, practice my religion if I wanted to; could laugh with others, could write and receive letters, could sleep when I wanted to; drink when I want to; move around freely in my cell when I want to; use the bathroom when I want to and at least feel like a human being with normal emotions.

unable to write or receive letters; unable to read; unable to choose when I sleep,
drinks or go to the bathroom; unable to move around freely; unable to practice my religion when I want to; unable to feel like a human being; the only feeling I
know at camp x-ray is the hate he brought with him. Showed bits of the movie “The Green Mile”.

I was instructed to clean my room in my wooden box. Interrogator told me that I will not be allowed to leave trash all around and live like the pig that I am.

responsibility to make sure the room is kept clean and I would have to clean it daily.
