The daughter question was to personalize it for you. Could have used son, sister, brother, mother, whatever. The point is, would you see another person taking advantage of them while they are drunk as a "show"?

Well, the question is - did they have to step in? I'm not sure if sexual contact is illegal in jail. If it is - yes. If they knew one of them was HIVed - yes. Watching the monitor is not illegal per se - there is no expectation of privacy in lock-up. The guard is supposed to sit there and watch the cell for 24 hours. Calling over 6 buddies to watch is inappropriate. Still, I file it under "if you are a drunken idiot who does something idiotic, I have no sympathy for you".
