False Confessions: When Innocent People Talk

from Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast · host Moms and Mysteries Podcast

Why would an innocent person confess to a crime they didn't commit? The answer is more complex—and more common—than you might think. Through five shocking cases, we explore the psychological tactics used during interrogations, the vulnerabilities that lead to false confessions, and the devastating consequences for those wrongfully convicted. This episode is a sobering look at how the justice system can fail even when someone "admits" guilt. Confessing doesn't always mean guilty. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
