Two Inmates Nailed to Crosses in Bolivia - by their buddies

Two inmates were voluntarily nailed to crosses Wednesday by their fellow prisoners as part of a protest for better conditions and shorter sentences that was broadcast on Bolivian television.
"Mom? What's Sponge Bob doing?"
The two men at the Palmasola prison in this city southeast of La Paz screamed in pain as their hands were nailed to the makeshift crosses. Inmates Freddy Acosta and Walter Ortiz were removed from the crosses after a few minutes and taken to the prison infirmary for treatment of broken bones in their hands, said regional police commander Freddy Soruco.
You got to wonder whether they are thieves.
They were removed by police who rushed to the scene. "No one forced us to do this," said Acosta, 37. "It’s the authorities’ fault."
- and if they refuse to meet our demands Betty the prostitute has volunteered to let us pelt her with chunks of cinder block.
