Revelations that Iranian prison officials may have beaten three protesters to death are only the latest shocking events that began in June with mass demonstrations in that country.  More than 70 protesters may have died during the demonstrations, and allegations have been made that authorities raped some of those detained.  Let's hope the criminal charges in these murder cases lead to meaningful trials, and convictions in the event the allegations are proven.
