It's a very interesting CBC video, I recommend everyone view it.
To summarize ?
They're legally allowed to lie to the suspect they're interrogating, and claim they have a mountain of evidence against you , even though in truth they might have nothing at all.
The usual flow of the interrogation is win your trust , pull out a clip board and start flipping through it as if it has lots and lots of evidence against you , and then ask why did you do it ? Heck ,they'll even show you evidence they ginned up just to trick you and make you think your case is hopeless. They can't show that evidence to the judge because it's false, but they can sure show it to you. They're allowed to lie to you.
No matter what reason you give, you gave a reason ? You confessed.
Now they flush their false evidence (assuming it wasn't just blank paper ) down the toilet , go to court with a confession in hand , and even if that confession is the only thing they have on you , you'll probably be found guilty and go to jail.
Works Great on Criminals.
Works great on the innocent as well.
If you didn't do it , stand by your story, and ignore their tales of vast mountains of evidence against you.
If you did do it , most criminals are idiots , and most forensic specialists are pretty bright , and you're probably going to the slammer no matter what. Gotta love finger prints and DNA matching. And video cameras everywhere, everyone's phone, public traffic cams ... why do people even try to commit crime in this kind of environment ?
