Omni magazine ran a short story years ago called A Thousand Deaths. It's an interesting read on a form of torture grossly beyond anything that could be done today.

And yet the hero of the story was able to adapt to it . . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
