No they just beat the **** out of him they didn't use effective "interrogation," techniques...
You are not paying attention.

I would have had that ****ers life story in under 2 minutes I would have found out the kid was in the safe. It's called water boarding.
You would have run whatever quaint little technique you're referring to for two minutes-- and then he would have played you the exact same way he played the cop.
Your understanding of interrogation is sadly limited. If it were even
remotely possible to break a determined prisoner in two minutes with any simple technique, there would never be a question of using it regardless of the ethics involved.
You couldn't break
me in under two minutes-- and I am a fat, spoiled and decadent civilian who is looking forward to enjoying a long and fruitful life.

The first thing that would have been done with the room they found the guy "Saw" in was to remove him and process the entire room. Hence they would have found the kid in the safe.
2 hours to track a video feed? I dont think so. In the real world less then 30 minutes.
It wouldn't have made for a good movie, but it's certainly a more valid point than Mr. Titus'.
They'd have tracked the video feed and realized that it was pre-recorded. Would've saved them a lot of other problems. Not the least of which is, they could have fast-forwarded the video to realize that they only had to worry about the accomplice and the boy.
As for finding the kid in the safe, I doubt they'd have accomplished that in under two hours. With Jigsaw's penchant for booby traps, they'd have needed bomb squad, and I don't know if there are any imaging techniques you could use to detect a living person inside a safe that way. You couldn't X-ray it.
They would have gotten the kid out pretty soon-- assuming that the automatic release were somehow disabled-- but it probably would have been four or five hours later.
