What Percent of Information Gathered from Torture is Truth?

We all know that torture isn't the most effective means of gathering information. People who are tortured only tell what the torturer what he wants to hear. So what percent of the information gathered from torture victims is true?What Percent of Information Gathered from Torture is Truth?Torture in many cases is used to confirm information which is already suspected.

Most people as you say will tell what they think the torturer wants to hear.

It is difficult to put a totally accurate percentage on your question, as some people will tell the truth from the onset,and some people will regardless of the pain not tell any useful information at all. A rough estimate of truth by torture would be in the 14 to20% area.
