Paul Roland interviews Flint Taylor of Chicago's People's Law Office http://peopleslawoffice.com/   on the breaking story of the off-the-books interrogation center at Homan Square used by Chicago police at least since 2005. Taylor has been working to expose police abuse and torture for over four decades.
