Is all torture bad, that really depends on the information you need at the time. I'll do it myself if I know it's a little bit of evil for the greater good.

Even if we agree that it is morally acceptable to do a little evil for the greater good (and we don't), this entire theory hinges on you being 100% certain that this person is a bad person and that he knows the exact information you need, with all the details, which you can't really be sure of.

I'm pretty sure that under torture, I'd admit I stabbed Caesar.
