'''Prisoner abuse''' is the crime of mistreating a civil or military prisoner. The worst violators, of course, are dictatorships of the Communist and Fascist type. Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler is notorious for murdering 6,000,000 Jews (see [[The Holocaust]]) and around 5,000,000 others, but it is less well known (or accepted) that [[Josef Stalin]] and [[Mao Tse Tung]] each murdered ten times as many.
