Assume their torture would last at least many hours.

If your response would be different based on your relationship to the person, please explain.

Why are they slated to get tortured?

Does it matter? Assume you have no way to stop the torture from happening, if that helps.

If they made their bed, they have to sleep in it.

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

Yes, it matters. If it were a child rapist, I'd do what I could to make sure the torture lasted longer and was worse...

What? no. I'm a pragmatic person and torture serves no purpose to me, it's a waste of time.

If somebody needs to be killed, you kill them. That's the way.
