Torture in the United States includes documented and alleged cases of torture both inside and outside the United States by members of the government, the military, law enforcement agencies, intelligence agencies, health care services, and other public organizations. Torture is illegal in the United States. The United States came under scrutiny for controversial practices, both from within and without, following the Military Commissions Act of 2006. The Human Rights Measurement Initiative gives the US a score of 3.6 out of 10 for the right to freedom from torture and ill-treatment.
