S1E3: False confessions today
In this final episode of our inaugural season, we discuss police interrogation tactics in 1917 and their connection to false confessions today. We talk to a researcher who studies the intersection of psychology and criminal justice and ways to protect the innocent and a former Memphis police chief who lived the complexities of race and policing. We also examine cases identified by local reporters as possible cases of false confessions.
