oh the usual mindfuckery. :D
Yeah I haven't written in this for a while. In interrogation, truth goes out the window The interrogators have no obligation to tell the truth, even under Geneva Conventions. You'll see this technique used in a lot of police interrogations, where it's called 'rolling'--you tell the subject that one of his partners or accomplices has 'rolled' on him and fingered him for the crime. This leads to a lot of counteraccusations, etc. In this case, it's combined with a sort of 'fallen idol' trope. Some people don't want to believe their idols/friends would do that and...when that cracks, it breaks hard.
Police interrogators have a large body of background information--they have gang unit experts, neighborhood gossip, etc, to set a backdrop. In war, the military interrogator will only have the notes on an EPW tag and possibly some anecdotes from guards. It's a lot...trickier.
