Remember kids, in an interrogation, the police are not your friends and they'll try to get a confession in whichever way is possible. Remain silent and get your lawyer involved. If they tell you that you'd be suspicious to ask that and no innocent person would do it, that's when you know they are not your friends.
If a cop ever says anything derogatory or implies anything regarding speaking with an attorney, their case is toast so that it almost wouldn’t matter, as that is a clearly established fifth amendment violation. Also, it’s important that people try to grasp when Miranda actually applies and the difference between detention and arrest. There is also a litany of established Supreme Court rulings involving providing certain demographic information (think asking for a license during a traffic stop). Though in the majority of cases you should ask for a lawyer, in some cases refusing to speak without a lawyer leads to far more headaches (ask any sovereign citizen wanna be). No reason to turn a petty ticket into a trip to jail or have the police smashing your car, because you thought (wrongly) you had a legal right to ignore them. The biggest tip generally is don’t break the law and you’ll never need to have all the ins and outs memorized.

Invoke the 5th, then don't invoke the 6th, and then leave because you can leave any interrogation if you don't have a lawyer present. (Only works if you were interrogated by police but not in jail (by not being in it or bail paid). Anywhere else, good luck. You'll need it.)

Cuz in my state at least there can be situations were you're not under arrest but you're not allowed to leave the scene without consequences.

@@verti3213 This isn't what I said, although I get how it could be interpreted this way.

The PEACE technique just seems like giving up on the idea of interrogation and thinking happy thoughts about other avenues of investigation producing results.
Most of these can be mitigated by two things 1. Answer slowly or conceisely- for example with the technique that cuts you off and asks another question as you answer, simply stop talking as they ask the second question and when they stop asking then continue with your answer to the first question, only when YOU are finished do you move on 2. Get a lawyer, and just shut up, only speaking when your laweyer tells you to and saying exactly what you you need too and nothing more
#2 should be what you do first, regardless of how guilty you are. It allows you the ability to avoid a majority of these techniques because a good lawyer won't let them badger you, and they are there to keep you from incriminating yourself, whether true or false as to you actually commiting a crime.
If you answer the first question after being asked a second, they will assume you are answering the second. Not because it's logical, but because it's to their advantage.
Most Ace attorney cases aren't likely to play out in real life though since trials irl don't take place literally the day after the incident so there's more time for the police to find contradictions in the witness testimonies. It'll probably be more like how the investigations games play out

You may be bad at talking, but this is something that 100% happens to innocent people. It’s why innocent people shouldn’t talk to police without an attorney, why nobody should talk to police without an attorney.

They wont tell you a crime happened though, theyll ask about the lift you gave them. Which is why you dont talk to police period if it can be helped

@@jacobp.2024Hasn’t stopped at least a handful of people being led on by CIA profiling operations that got some susceptible people who towed the line of interest about potential crimes into nearly committing those crimes, which was considered an effective admission of guilt as they were doing something harmful but in a situation where everyone involved couldn’t be hurt because they anticipated what was happening. Still entrapment, though.
No, it is not. Entrapment is police telling someone to commit a crime, then charging them for that crime. This is police telling someone to commit a crime to eventually get a confession to a previous, unrelated crime.

Mr big would literally be illegal in Germany, since persuading someone to commit a crime is a crime itself. I mean what's the logic behind "We're gonna punish you for the crimes that we made you do"? That just sounds like individualized discrimination with extra steps
I assume they get around it by having the things they order not actually be crimes. E.g. transport "drugs" (that are actually mundane imitations) to a "buyer" (another undercover police officer). So the victim thinks they've committed a crime, which is enough to leverage the confession later, but no actual crime has taken place.
3:00 me, a high school girl who’s never gotten in trouble who starts uncontrollably sobbing whenever someone confronts me for something I did or even didn’t do: 👁️👄👁️
Mr big made me recall a story I heard about a lady named Pauline Dakin, who’s mother would constantly and mysteriously move her around Canada as a kid, largely from influence of a pastor friend who became like a surrogate father. Later her mother told her that the reason for the weird childhood was because they were targets for a crime syndicate (her estranged father may have gotten involved in the mob and they wanted to clean loose ends) and that the government was secretly protecting them, and there were special places as part of the “weird world” where the mob is combated and targeted people are protected. Pauline later critically thought about it and engaged her mother and the pastor, and it turned out he was making it up and her mother was following along. Most likely a form of mental illness. Not a direct connection but I thought I’d share, it’s a very interesting story.
@@zaidlacksalastname4905 Naw, my mother was always convinced that I had done something wrong. Also those red squiggly lines under words indicate that the spelling might need to be tweaked a little.
You forgot the famous “na-na na-na boo-boo” technique once executed flawlessly by Detective Stuckmann on the serial killer Steward “Griffin” Pecan. It was critical to his arrest and confession.
@@tigerthenoob the technique is to ask a suspect an important question, then make a silly insulting face at them to cause them to slip up and forget the lie they were saying
"Mr. Big" seems like it's only useful as a way to extort the poor and desperate, really. I've been homeless. You have no idea what hunger *actually* feels like until you haven't eaten anything for a week or two. Body crying out for anything. Even bugs start to look good. So when you take someone living in that situation and promise them an escape, of course they're going to take the opportunity regardless of legality. Like dangling steak in front of the dog, then yanking it away when he jumps to bite it, and throwing him in prison for even thinking to do it. Then again who doesn't hate the poor except the poor?
The goal is to get them to confess something else. Normally, they committed Crime A, and the actors convince them to do Crimes B, C, D, and E. That way, when they confess to Mr. Big, they confess all of the crimes they did, where they can be arrested from Crime A. The problem is that even if they did do that, it's hard to get a full confession from without feeding them information
This video shows me again what I love about psychology: It is so universal. The human behaviour is predictable and psycholical techniques are universal useful.
Torture is an infamously bad method of gaining information or determining the truth; people will say anything to make the torture stop. They will say exactly what they think you want to hear, regardless of whether it happened or not.
@@spud2576but it is also an excellent way of getting a confession no matter what, which makes the whole justice system run a lot smoother. (Im not advocating toture im just pointing out why they do it)

As someone that loves learning about interrogation, thank you for this! Side note: Don't go in without a lawyer, despite TV show logic a lawyer will protect you from being fooled into a false confession!
The PEACE technique seems like the smartest one here, in my opinion. Breaking the entire situation down and letting the suspect tell their story is a really good way to gather evidence, especially if the suspect seems to contradict what footage has shown. It's also nice that they even evaluate everything afterward to make sure they have the full story.
@@nuttrbuttr5 they gaslight you to give information they will only use against you. Nothing you said can be used to defend you. It's ONLY a bad thing to talk. NOTHING YOU SAY IS GOOD.
Theres an entire jhon oliver episode on how the ried technique has no scientific basis and often causes false confessions by lieing to the suspect about evidence
Thank you Paint Explainer! Now with this new info, I can FINALLY stop admitting the crimes I commited to the Police! (jokes aside, this is a really good video)
Do not say this, police (in America) can use lack of knowledge of what the fifth is to not get you a lawyer, say you won’t speak without a lawyer and ask for one instead, shit’s fucked
Also worth mentioning that Pride and Ego Down has an inverse technique, Pride and Ego Up, which is what it sounds like - complimenting the suspect and telling them how smart they are, in hopes that they'll relax and open up more. Sometimes they'll couple that with the good cop bad cop technique, usually having the good cop doing the Pride and Ego Up and the bad cop doing Pride and Ego Down.
@@ExDixionconderogaWhile it probably is a waste of money, it is not entrapment as it would not charge for the fake crimes. It's essentially an overcomplicated version of the loaded questions technique, the fake crimes are there so that the criminal reveals more than what they actually did.

No entrapment is when police force you to do a crime you wouldn't otherwise commit. They use the tatic on criminals that already sell drugs so no entrapment
Yes
When I was arrested, one of the officers dressed up as a stereotypical social worker in order to get me to think that he was not a police officer & I could confess to him.
Did you confess

Mr. Big sounds 100% like entrapment.
That's because Mr. Big is entrapment. It's just entrapment. There's no distinction; this would be illegal in the US.
-sounds 100% like- is just
Thats because it literally IS entrapment.
@@jacobp.2024Hasn’t stopped at least a handful of people being led on by CIA profiling operations that got some susceptible people who towed the line of interest about potential crimes into nearly committing those crimes, which was considered an effective admission of guilt as they were doing something harmful but in a situation where everyone involved couldn’t be hurt because they anticipated what was happening. Still entrapment, though.
No, it is not. Entrapment is police telling someone to commit a crime, then charging them for that crime. This is police telling someone to commit a crime to eventually get a confession to a previous, unrelated crime.

Mr big would literally be illegal in Germany, since persuading someone to commit a crime is a crime itself. I mean what's the logic behind "We're gonna punish you for the crimes that we made you do"? That just sounds like individualized discrimination with extra steps
I think the same in my country, the USA, which is why Canadians can’t talk shit about our police system.
@@ExDixionconderogaAtleast our police aren’t a holes
@@ExDixionconderoga Canada has basically the same entrapment laws the US has.
They aren’t punishing them for the crimes they told them to do.
I assume they get around it by having the things they order not actually be crimes. E.g. transport "drugs" (that are actually mundane imitations) to a "buyer" (another undercover police officer). So the victim thinks they've committed a crime, which is enough to leverage the confession later, but no actual crime has taken place.
Wow, and it's amazing that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE has a counter.

Mr big made me recall a story I heard about a lady named Pauline Dakin, who’s mother would constantly and mysteriously move her around Canada as a kid, largely from influence of a pastor friend who became like a surrogate father. Later her mother told her that the reason for the weird childhood was because they were targets for a crime syndicate (her estranged father may have gotten involved in the mob and they wanted to clean loose ends) and that the government was secretly protecting them, and there were special places as part of the “weird world” where the mob is combated and targeted people are protected. Pauline later critically thought about it and engaged her mother and the pastor, and it turned out he was making it up and her mother was following along. Most likely a form of mental illness.
Not a direct connection but I thought I’d share, it’s a very interesting story.
REID is fascinating to watch in real time
it's pretty mentally exhausting to watch, especially when it's used on serial killers
My favorite example of this being used was the interview of Alyssa Bustamante.

The first one really seems like an ass backwards way to arrest someone
It's not backwards, just ass and ass is almost always backwards
"Mr. Big" seems like it's only useful as a way to extort the poor and desperate, really. I've been homeless. You have no idea what hunger *actually* feels like until you haven't eaten anything for a week or two. Body crying out for anything. Even bugs start to look good.
So when you take someone living in that situation and promise them an escape, of course they're going to take the opportunity regardless of legality. Like dangling steak in front of the dog, then yanking it away when he jumps to bite it, and throwing him in prison for even thinking to do it.
Then again who doesn't hate the poor except the poor?
Thank you so much. These really came in handy
Hi, could you do negotiation techniques next?
If you want a brilliant example of the pause technique, albeit in a press interview and not a police interrogation, watch Andrew Callaghan
Isn't the first one entrapment?
Yea but it's canada
@@frozencatcake we have entrapment laws in Canada
@@someguy7819 òh
@@someguy7819 does it work in this situation ?
The goal is to get them to confess something else. Normally, they committed Crime A, and the actors convince them to do Crimes B, C, D, and E. That way, when they confess to Mr. Big, they confess all of the crimes they did, where they can be arrested from Crime A. The problem is that even if they did do that, it's hard to get a full confession from without feeding them information
This video shows me again what I love about psychology: It is so universal. The human behaviour is predictable and psycholical techniques are universal useful.
The Ried Method is the most entertaining to watch, insane how people just forget they can just...not talk
most of these seem like they are just there to make the interviewer get their confirmation bias validated
There’s also, bamboo under fingernails.
the best method
we're talking about interrogation not torture. yet.
Torture is an infamously bad method of gaining information or determining the truth; people will say anything to make the torture stop. They will say exactly what they think you want to hear, regardless of whether it happened or not.
@@spud2576but it is also an excellent way of getting a confession no matter what, which makes the whole justice system run a lot smoother. (Im not advocating toture im just pointing out why they do it)
@@spud2576Since when did the cops care about justice? So long as they get to hold power over someone and get an ego boost they’re happy.
Dude can you please make Every Moral Dilemmas (like the trolley incident). I'd legit love to see a thought provoking video like that

It’s not entrapment at all.
@@Loj84 found the Canadian
@@52flyingbicycles nope, American, I just know what entrapment actually means.
@@Loj84 “Action by law enforcement personnel to lead an otherwise innocent person to commit a crime, in order to arrest and prosecute that person for the crime.”
That precisely describes the Mr Big strategy.
As someone that loves learning about interrogation, thank you for this!
Side note: Don't go in without a lawyer, despite TV show logic a lawyer will protect you from being fooled into a false confession!
the first one just makes it sound like youre being tricked into comitting MORE crimes than you really did
The PEACE technique seems like the smartest one here, in my opinion. Breaking the entire situation down and letting the suspect tell their story is a really good way to gather evidence, especially if the suspect seems to contradict what footage has shown. It's also nice that they even evaluate everything afterward to make sure they have the full story.
But at the same time, no ones memory is perfect. Peoples names change, color of a jacket changes, even people who were never there could show up

Mr Big worked in Australia to catch a serial killer who murdered a kid. The movie based off the true story is called “The Stranger”
These videos are always interesting and explained well, how long does it take to make these types of videos?

The technique was invented in 1948 by John E. Reid

That Mr. Big one sounds like entrapment, if they're making the suspect do real crimes, and charging them for those crimes.
They don't charge them for the crimes they tasked them with, only the crimes they confessed to.

@@gustavthomsen1538 no worries! I respect that.
Friendly reminder that you have the right to remain silent
"i plead the fifth"/"i invoke the fifth" is how you can avoid these
it might be more effective to say you want a lawyer, then they have to get you one no matter what and not just try to get you to talk again
Do not say this, police (in America) can use lack of knowledge of what the fifth is to not get you a lawyer, say you won’t speak without a lawyer and ask for one instead, shit’s fucked
Not actually a good method to deal with it because of Informal Questioning. You don't plead the fifth in a normal conversation, so that wouldn't work.
@@satgurs informal questioning should be illegal
Also worth mentioning that Pride and Ego Down has an inverse technique, Pride and Ego Up, which is what it sounds like - complimenting the suspect and telling them how smart they are, in hopes that they'll relax and open up more. Sometimes they'll couple that with the good cop bad cop technique, usually having the good cop doing the Pride and Ego Up and the bad cop doing Pride and Ego Down.
Mr.big is the biggest fuckin waste of police money iv ever heard, if there a petty crook just get him for something petty. also its kind of entrapment
It doesn't sound like a justified technique.

No shit it is entrapment
@@ExDixionconderogaWhile it probably is a waste of money, it is not entrapment as it would not charge for the fake crimes. It's essentially an overcomplicated version of the loaded questions technique, the fake crimes are there so that the criminal reveals more than what they actually did.
