a Delta Airlines pilot was asleep, at about 11pm, in the Revere Hotel on Stuart Street, Boston (damn, nice expensive hotel room! Is the airline paying for that?) when the FBI woke him up rudely, and interrogated him, for an hour, by mistake.

 To no one's shock, the FBI were having a training exercise, in the expensive hotel (you don't expect them to get their suits filthy in any cheap hotel, on the some of some highway, do you?) on the 15th floor, and they screwed up what room the actor who would be portraying a criminal, was supposed to be in, that they were supposed to interrogate. 

 They handcuffed the pilot and cold shower interrogated him for nearly an hour before realizing their mistake, sources said. 

Is that possibly code for water boarding? Yup. 

It was meant to simulate a situation they "might encounter in a deployed environment," officials told USA TODAY."They were mistakenly sent to the wrong room," according to a statement from the FBI. While there, the federal authorities detained the room's occupant in an incident that appeared to stretch on for longer than an hour, a police report shows.

When Boston Police arrived, they confirmed it was a botched federal training exercise. the US Army Special Operations Command were conducting “essential military training” in Boston on Tuesday with local FBI agents, Lieutenant Colonel Mike Burns at U.S. Army Special Operations Command told The Boston Globe.

“The training was meant to enhance soldiers’ skills to operate in realistic and unfamiliar environments,” Burns said. “The training team, unfortunately, entered the wrong room and detained an individual unaffiliated with the exercise.”

Vic Hartman, a former 25-year veteran of the FBI, said the training exercise in public does not make sense to him.
