Yeah and we are talking about a woman being TORTURED in Nigeria.

Not sure how you can think Nintendo suing someone is comparable to this.

According to the article the conditions in the jail were just deplorable to the point of being torture which is also common in the US. So that's also comparable.

Really? I haven’t heard of that. Where have you heard of jail cells with water across the whole floor and no furniture?

If you can provide evidence, I’ll change my mind.

The US literally has the Guatanamo Bay concentration camp for political prisoners so they could legally torture them.

If you want something more domestic then I'm sure one of those had some water or furniture related death: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-jails-deaths/ Though from what I understand in the US death by cop is the most likely.
