[Josy]

You are part of a group of ecologists who live in a remote stretch of jungle. The entire group, which includes eight children, has been taken hostage by a group of paramilitary terrorists. One of the terrorists takes a liking to you. He informs you that his leader intends to kill you and the rest of the hostages the following morning.

He is willing to help you and the children escape, but as an act of good faith he wants you to torture and kill one of your fellow hostages whom he does not like. If you refuse his offer, all the hostages including the children and yourself will die. If you accept his offer, then the others will die in the morning but you and the eight children will escape.

Would you torture and kill one of your fellow hostages in order to escape from the terrorists and save the lives of the eight children?
