Transcription de la présentation

  1. POLICE INTERROGATIONS

  2. FROM SGT. BRUCE BOARDMAN, APD, 3-4-97 • PREPARE. KNOW INFORMATION ABOUT SUSPECT • HAVE GOALS AND QUESTIONS YOU WANT ANSWERED, BUT DON’T NECESSARILY USE DIRECT APPROACH • START WITH EASY QUESTIONS. FIRST GOAL IS TO GET SUSPECT TO TALK

  3. HUMANIZE THEM • LET THEM KNOW THAT “IF YOU LIE ABOUT SMALL THINGS, YOU’LL LIE ABOUT BIG ONES.” THEN LOOK FOR INCONSISTENCIES. • USE YOUR OWN STYLE • DIFFERENT CRIMES REQUIRE DIFFERENT METHODS

  4. ENVIRONMENT. NO DISTRACTIONS. HAVE SUSPECT FACE WALL WITH YOU IN FRONT OF HIM/HER. ANOTHER POLICE OFFICER MAY ALSO BE IN THE ROOM. YOU MAY NEED TO INVADE THE SUSPECT’S PERSONAL SPACE. • WHEN THEY BREAK, LET THEM TALK UNINTERRUPTED

  5. FALSE CONFESSIONS • POLICE ROUTINELY USE DECEPTION, TRICKERY, AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY COERCIVE METHODS IN INTERROGATIONS • THIS CAUSES SOME SUSPECTS TO IMPLICATE THEMSELVES IN OR CONFESS TO CRIMES THEY DID NOT COMMIT

  6. WITHOUT AUDIO OR VIDEO TAPES OF INTERROGATIONS, JURIES CANNOT ADEQUATELY ASSESS COERCION IN INTERROGATIONS • POLICE, SUSPECTS, LAWYERS, JUDGES, & JURIES BENEFIT FROM TAPE RECORDED INTERROGATIONS

  7. BENEFITS OF TAPING • GETS MORE GUILTY PLEAS • FEWER APPEALS • LOWERS CHARGES OF MISCONDUCT • CONTROVERSY OVER WHEN TAPING SHOULD OCCUR

  8. EXTREME METHODS FOR ELICITING CONFESSIONS • BY FAR, THE MOST DETAILED AND TRUTHFUL CONFESSIONS WILL BE OBTAINED JUST AFTER THE PERSON HAS BEEN FORMALLY CHARGED WITH THE CRIME • BREAK DOWN THE PRISONER PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY

  9. RESTRICT DIET; DISRUPT NORMAL PATTERNS; CREATE ANXIETY, MENTAL TENSION, IMPAIRED JUDGMENT • CUT PRISONER OFF FROM ALL ADVICE/CONTACT WITH OTHERS • TORTURE LEADS TO A LOT OF FALSE CONFESSIONS

  10. MAKE THE PRISONER FEEL A PREFERENCE FOR PUNISHMENT COMBINED WITH THE HOPE OF SALVATION & RELIEF OF MENTAL TENSION • FATIGUE AND ANXIETY CAN INDUCE SUGGESTIBILITY IN THE EXAMINER AS WELL AS THE PRISONER
