Tentang eBook ini

Confession Validity Issues explores the troubling intersection of politics and true crime, focusing on how confessions are assessed within the criminal justice system. It examines the legal standards determining if a confession is admissible, highlighting the psychological factors that can undermine its validity. The book argues that current legal standards often fail to fully account for the pressures that induce false confessions, leading to wrongful convictions, and emphasizes the importance of understanding interrogation techniques, like minimization and maximization, that can elicit unreliable statements. The book uniquely blends legal analysis with insights from social science and forensic psychology, advocating for reforms such as mandatory video recording of interrogations and improved training for law enforcement. Landmark cases such as Miranda v. Arizona, while intended to protect civil liberties, are scrutinized for their actual effectiveness. Did you know that vulnerable individuals are particularly susceptible to coercive interrogation tactics or that erroneous confessions can imprison innocent people while freeing actual perpetrators? Beginning with an outline of the legal framework, including Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights, the book progresses through psychological tactics used during interrogations, presents case studies of wrongful convictions, and concludes with specific reform proposals. This approach aims to provide legal professionals, law enforcement, and anyone concerned with justice a comprehensive understanding of confession validity and its implications.
