Can you extend that to torturing a homelss person with no relatives, and no talents that you can use, as long as you gain something and won't get caught? Just playing devil's advocate here.

A better example, mentioned by Cooker, made clear that we should treat criminals that can't be rehabillitated as nothing more than societal resources. Torture them for information, kill them for science, do what you want because the benefits outweigh the cost. So, in answer to your question, yes; at least in my opinion.
