You're a pretty big dolt, aren't you? What's your reasoning for justifying what that Canadian attorney got, and what militants do to hostages? Please explain.
no cruel and unusual punishment, right to trail are all constitutional rights
I am not a big dolt, pretty skinny-fat right now!

Those who are not residents of our country are not privy to the rights of our constitution. Especially when, through their crimes, they piss all over it.
Don't know about the Canadian atty....but its likely the exception, NOT the rule.
