United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 5 states "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment." If someone dies from extreme temperatures on your hands and you could have stopped it that makes you a murderer.
Why is this important?
This is inhumane! People are crying out for help.
St Louis, Missouri, and Texas jails: We are paying attention! Your jails need air conditioning now. Subjecting someone to extreme temperatures is inhumane and a form of torture.
