    Why does anyone confess to the police? While a plea bargain in court might lower your punishment, confessing to police can only hurt you. Yet people do it all the time.

When you travel out of state, where your lawyer probably can't practice law, the first thing you do is get an attorney's card with his information in case you need it? I guess you have already done that, so you carry around a big stack of lawyer's business cards, so this information clearly is not for you.

    When I was 12 I was home alone and someone tried to break into my house. It was a fairly passive attempt (whoever it was ran off after seeing me inside), but I was scared enough to call the police.
    They showed up and went looking around my neighborhood. The neighbors two doors down were not completely clean so the father took off into the back woods leaving his son behind in the house. The officers went into that house (notably without a warrant or good cause) and found the boy hiding in a closet. They called me in to identify him.
    That teenage boy was crying and terrified. The police told me that he had confessed to trying to break in to my home. That kid was obviously scared enough to confess to the Lincoln and JFK assassinations. He didn't match the description I had given them, and I told them that. They acted like I was suddenly lying to them. Fortunately, I held my ground and told them firmly this kid was innocent.
    Glad I wasn't used to wrongfully imprison a teenager.

      Wow, is police like that all over the world? I had a somewhat similar experience when I was called to the police station to identify my robber. Considering that I saw the guy's face several inches from mine and he was young and very blond, they were showing me a much older guy with dark hair. And gosh they tried to make me say that it was him.
      It was scary. It's like I was guilty of something when in reality they just didn't want to do their job.

      @JTC there is no similarity to the bully. And usually bullying victims go to the school, etc, not to the bully 's parents! And your anecdotal experience with law enforcement pales in comparison to those of us who lived it for our career. It's like me having a bad experience with a black mugger, and condeming all black people as being criminal and alike. Duh. Also, a criminal accomplishes nothing good coming to my home to confront my family. My wife doesn't control me. Dept regulations, the law, and the courts do. Bullying cops get found out and fired or harassed by their dept. Criminal cops get prosecuted. That's not to say that innocent cops don't get tarred with a false Reputation by a zealous news media. I've seen that numerous times. It's the damned of you do, damned if you don't, scenario. Judging any human activity by the exception rather than the rule cheats them and you.

      That’s not true at all. I’ve been instructed from my supervisors to get a video statement from any and every felony arrest where the defendant does not lawyer up. It can help a strong and a weak case. Just because you’re being interrogated does not necessarily mean it’s a weak case. Trust me. This is how it’s done in NYC.
      Additionally, here is why what you said is untrue. I’ve had cases where there was multiple witnesses who knew the guy (a confirmatory ID, which is much much stronger than a stranger ID, where there’s always the possibility of a mis-ID), caught on surveillance camera, caught on NYPD body camera, with the guy arrested holding the gun in his hand.. as close to a slam dunk as possible.. and I was still instructed to get a video statement from him every single time (so long as he didn’t lawyer up).
      This is because even if he denies everything, their statement can still put themselves at the scene, or eliminate the possibility of an alibi defense. Also, no offense, but criminals aren’t the most intelligent people. They think they can talk their way out of things. And they wind up sinking their own ship.
      And additionally, most importantly, it pidgeon holes them into a version of the events that they cannot deviate from at trial. So there are many benefits to getting a statement on camera, for a strong or weak case. Once you have his version recorded, he cannot change it at a later time at trial. Because any changed version will make their testimony inconsistent which opens them up to an “impeachment by inconsistent statement”.
      Also, getting a video statement from them 9 times out of 10 allows you to discover what defense they will be using at trial. And once it’s put on camera he does not have time to change or alter his version of the events.
      So there are many many many reasons to get a video statement from a perp. Both in strong and weak evidentiary cases.

      Clearly you watch too much TV. Or listen to advicates. I've talked to defense attorneys who feel the DAs take every case that gets near them. But... 100% of defense atty clients in court are charged. Their perception is wrong when you look at all suspects in all cases. When a DA says "i know he probably did it, but I can't likely prove it in court, so I refuse the case" no defense attorney is bemoaning his innocent client being charged. Their perception is innaccurate. You might get rousted by cops 100 times. But you can't say that cops roust every one. Your experience is only you. Yet you blame the cop who reacts impoperly because all his minority contacts were negative against him, so he judges all minority contacts with caution or apprehension. If you do it, why be surprised when cops do it?

    @thawkxing Рік тому +2

    I was actually in this situation recently. Thankfully it was a pre-employment polygraph exam and not a criminal interrogation, but it was still one of the worst experiences of my entire life. I ended up "failing," despite the fact that I was completely truthful throughout the exam. The techniques they use make you doubt things that you were previously 100% certain about, and they raise the tension in the room so high that you fee like your only way out is to admit to something, even if it isn't true.

    • @thawkxing
      @thawkxing Рік тому

      Here's a much more detailed account of my experience if anybody is interested in reading, which I'll have to break down into several comments:
      The exam was conducted by a company called Northland Investigations, and by the owner of this company, Dan Caputo. I name him because I think it is important that these individuals stand by their behavior, and not be shielded by anonymity.
      Anyhow, the experience was extremely bizarre from the moment I step into the exam room. When I first walk into the exam room, I'm holding a cup of coffee, of which I've drunken about a half of. Upon seeing this, Caputo basically jumps out of his seat and goes "Oh, let me take that from you, we don't like when people drink coffee, it changes your physiology." Mind you, along with the pre-exam questionnaire I was sent a list of instructions for the exam, which included things like not drinking alcohol 24 hours before the test, trying to get adequate sleep, not being sick, etc. Nowhere on this form did it say anything about not drinking coffee. So, Caputo was essentially playing mind games from the minute I walk into the exam room. What was also strange (and I promise I'm not saying this to sound petty) was that it appeared Caputo was wearing a shirt that seemed too small for him in an attempt to try and accentuate his biceps. In the first few minutes of the pre-test phase, he proceeds with the typical good cop routine. He thanks me for applying at DPS, because "we need good people like you." He assures me that everybody's violated at least some of the requirements, but in his experience, most people who fail do so because they lie about the frequency of their transgressions. He even tells me that he used to work as a game warden, and even he broke some of the rules. The rest of the introduction was basically right out of TLBTLD, which unfortunately I hadn't read up to this point. He gives me the whole spiel about how the machine detects homeostasis based on your fight or flight response, and how you couldn't control it even if you wanted to, blah blah blah. (I was shocked when I read TLBTLD, because he was basically quoting it verbatim.)
      As we moved into the pre-test interview portion of the exam, it became obvious that this would be a harsh interrogation, not an opportunity to "clarify your answers" as is so often (and misleadingly) described in polygraph jargon. As Caputo was looking over the question sheet, he, seemingly off the top of his head, goes "Have you ever like, fondled a girl while she was sleeping?" In hindsight, I'm confident that this was asked to make me uncomfortable and provide him an opportunity to observe my body language, because after asking a few more questions, he, much more seriously this time, goes "Have you ever fondled a girl while she was sleeping?" While I'm sure there's reasons relating to polygraphy that he continued to ask me this, I think the main reason was that he observed my level of discomfort at being asked this question and enjoyed watching me become angry and upset. As someone who has never and would never do something like this, being asked this question multiple times definitely succeeded in making me upset and extremely uncomfortable. Caputo's creepy physical appearance and demeanor certainly did nothing to assuage my feelings of discomfort (I would encourage you to Google this individual for a better idea of what I mean by this.)

    • @thawkxing
      @thawkxing Рік тому

      The first time I went to answer a question, I responded by verbally stating "no," and Caputo goes "so this happens with about 40% of people who take polygraphs, it looks like you're talking with your gut…" and stated that he was going to administer the silent answer test. Following this, the first time I went to answer a question I did so by nodding my head, and Caputo angrily yells at me "HALF OF THAT MOVEMENT." So, when answering his questions, you could literally nod your head about three inches down for no, and about three inches to the right for yes. I'm 99% sure that this was an orchestrated tactic that he was going to use from the beginning, because a.) I've taken a polygraph before, and never was I told that I "talk with my gut," and needed to respond in this manner b.) I have a naturally low voice, and nobody who knows me would ever say that I "talk with my gut," c.) he orchestrated the silent answer test after asking me one question, so it's doubtful he expected CM's d.) I was able to get in touch with another gentleman who was administered a polygraph by Northland Investigations, and he told me that he was instructed to do the same exact thing. In the words of this gentlemen: "I'm at a loss how anyone can consider that stress position to not return negative physiological reactions." Obviously, this was exactly the point, as Caputo loved seeing the disconcerted state I was in.
      So now, we're in the in-test phase of the examination, and Caputo starts with his round of questions. During this first round of questions, I'm unable to remember which questions I'm supposed to lie on, and accidentally answer one his questions wrong. When I do this, he again angrily yells at me "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO ANSWER NO TO THAT QUESTION." I remember wondering why he yelled at me when it was his fault for not explaining the directions clearly, and now I realize that it was all a part of his plan. After re-explaining the directions in a very annoyed manner, Caputo re-starts the exam, and I try my best to recall which questions I'm supposed to lie on, and which questions I'm supposed to tell the truth on. In addition to this, I'm trying to make sure that I don’t move my head more than a few inches to the side, or too quickly. Apparently, I did this a couple of times, and Caputo proceeds to bitterly remind me "HALF OF THAT MOVEMENT." So, I'm sitting there trying to focus on answering his questions correctly, as well as trying my best to refrain from making too large of a movement, when Caputo suddenly yells in my ear "STOP TRYING TO THROW OFF THE MACHINE." He did not provide me with any specifics as to what I was allegedly doing to try to "throw off the machine," and I am highly confident that this was done to make me even more uncomfortable and increase his chances of eliciting a confession. In addition, Caputo reveled in my discomfort, and thoroughly enjoyed the pain he was inflicting onto me.
      At this point, I am extremely annoyed, frustrated, and exhausted, and Caputo realizes this and launches into full on interrogation mode. He tells me that something is "on my mind" and proceeds to angrily shove his papers in my face and yell "WELL LOOK AT THIS," "HOW ABOUT THIS," "YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER SOMETHING," "LOOK AT THIS ONE AGAIN." I continue to look at his papers and deny his accusations while he continues to badger me, and I believe he said something like "well let's try this one more time," and hooks me back up to the recording instruments. After asking me I think two questions, he gets up out of his chair, storms over to me, unhooks me from the tubes, and angrily storms out of the room. The manner in which he concluded the exam is without a doubt the most unprofessional and immature action that I have ever witnessed in my entire life, and I want to make it crystal clear that that is not an exaggeration of any kind. I sat there shocked and bewildered at the fact that any adult, or individual associated with law enforcement, would behave in such a manner. Even for the standards of polygraph examiners, this was shameless and unprofessional.

    • @thawkxing
      @thawkxing Рік тому

      As he is leaving the room, he makes sure to make an extremely petty comment about not forgetting the cup of coffee I mentioned earlier, and sarcastically says "sorry that it cooled." I'm sure he was building up to making that comment the second he saw me walk in with a cup of coffee.
      After he storms out of the room, I'm escorted back to the lobby by an HR associate, who can tell that I'm visibly upset. At this point, I know I'm out of the job, but am still stunned by what I had just witnessed.
      In the words of Ugadda B "Everyday sadism is the most apt description I can provide of the experience." What I saw in the exam room that day was nothing short of cold-hearted evil. My experience that day made it clear that polygraphy is the instrument used by this individual to inflict pain onto others. The way he enjoyed my discomfort and reveled in my pain traumatizes me to this day, nearly five months after my exam. Since this examination, I've been offered two jobs that would have required polygraphs but have turned them down because of the lingering effects of this experience. Looking back on this day, there are about ten different times that I should have gotten up and walked out the exam room but didn’t because of how much I wanted the job. Of course, I now realize that even if I had been offered the job, it would not have been worth subjecting myself to this kind of mistreatment. What I also realize is that polygraph examiners routinely take advantage of people while they're in a vulnerable state, allowing them to act in a way that no other circumstance would allow them to. If you are in the midst of a polygraph examination and your examiner begins to act this way, allow them to take your job opportunity, but do not allow them to take your dignity and peace of mind.
      Last of all, shame on the police departments and government agencies that employ these individuals, and the polygraph organizations that enable this type of behavior. In this specific instance, shame on the Arizona Department of Public Safety, and shame on the American Polygraph Association. I know that having no shame is a prerequisite to being a polygraph examiner, but this is just embarrassing, and cruel.

      Is this supposed to be an anti-cop comment? If so...it's pretty daft. There is a major difference between getting a confession, and a false confession. When only 1% of confessions end up being false confessions...that's a pretty good 'win' rate. And with criminal science getting better and better every day...many people can be proven innocent with evidence if they give a false confession.
      But I guess we can start forgetting about criminal science since all of these dummies want to defund the police. So now we'll just start seeing people locked up for no reason more often.
      Perhaps once you have a major crime done to you or your family...you'll magically 'get' why detectives and interrogations exist.
      Equally so, instead of doing what we do and the rest of the civilized world does...we could just start doing what 70% of the other chunk of the world does within their interrogations...physical and mental torture. But hey, Americas cops are so big bad and evil...am I right?!

I see it a lot they will have the suspect taking about how they were doing a week before the murder and they get long detailed answers but once you get to the actual crime, the suspect won’t give any information on what happened that day.

      In the United States, the Miranda warning is a type of notification customarily given by police to criminal suspects in police custody (or in a custodial interrogation) advising them of their right to silence; that is, their right to refuse to answer questions or provide information to law enforcement or other officials. These rights are often referred to as Miranda rights. The purpose of such notification is to preserve the admissibility of their statements made during custodial interrogation in later criminal proceedings.

      later that year, I was with another customer at a Sushi restaurant and this guy walked in and we both knew him. The guy I was with said oh, there is Mister X, he is a real nice guy. Then as we left and walked by him and said our hello's, the guy with me said he is a nice guy again as we left.

For a lot of cases, there is a state prosecutor and a state attorney, which you could say is "fair". But of course it's not always the case - I'd say that absolutely if the state really wants a conviction, or they are up against rich people who can afford expensive lawyers, poor people are at a disadvantage.

I get the point the comment is trying to make but objectively it’s better that 99 criminals are behind bars than 99 criminals getting to be free just so that 1 instance doesn’t happen. Also, there are other ways innocent people can be convicted. They can be framed or set up by the true perpetrator, doing so in a way that tampers with physical evidence (which is supposed to be a super reliable form of evidence). So like, as sad as it is, I believe it’s almost impossible for innocent people to never be falsely charged. If the hypothetical 99 people are murderous criminals, it’s just safer for society that they aren’t free at the cost of one innocent person being in jail

Lawyer up fast if the conversation goes anywhere other than the reason they give first for having pulled you over. ESPECIALLY if it goes toward looking in your car for any reason at all. They should carry their own tissues, they have no right to look, and you have no obligation to consent, so that’s when OP’s wisdom comes into play. The attorney will explain to them why you’re not giving them the opportunity to plant anything, which the good apples will actually understand. Only the bad cops will be pissed at being denied that opportunity, right?
