Obviously, everything possible within the constraints of the situation.

I would leave that up to professional interrogators. They've got an enviable track record of getting positive results. And if they don't, how can you be positive that 2 hours of torture is going to break anyone? You spend two hours and one minute torturing this man and he doesn't give you the information, and your daughter dies anyway.
Or two hours of interrogation yields nothing.

No, I don't. That's a really obtuse conclusion.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
