42. The correct legal term might be "extraordinary rendition"

Anybody remember that phrase from the Iraq war times?

Extraordinary rendition is a euphemistically-named policy of state-sponsored abduction in a foreign jurisdiction and transfer to a third state. The best-known use of extraordinary rendition is in a United States-led program during the War on Terror, which circumvented the source country's laws on interrogation, detention, extradition and/or torture. Extraordinary rendition is a type of extraterritorial abduction, but not all extraterritorial abductions include transfer to a third country.

Wiki

The only difference is we're abducting people in our own country instead of a foreign nation. Maybe it should be called extra-extraordinary rendition.
