Why Do Innocent People Confess?

5. It's a very odd thing

We all think we won't do it. But once that cop is really in your face, I guess most of us not used to dealing with that will tell them anything to get them out! Demand a lawyer no matter what! No matter how small the charge.

I had a friend charged with robbery for grabbing something from his girlfriend! Because of the "force" used. They will intimidate you with words - I'm going to charge you with (extreme thing you never dreamed of doing) and they do not have to keep those promises. If it is not in writing, it did not happen!
