Suspect Tries Falling Asleep INSTANTLY REGRETS IT
from Red Tree Crime Hosted by Red Tree Crime
A suspect is brought in for questioning. He is tired. He is bored. He decides to take a nap. He closes his eyes. The detective keeps talking. The suspect ignores him. The detective raises his voice. The suspect ignores him. The detective slams a file on the table. The suspect opens his eyes. The detective asks if he wants to know what is in the file. The suspect says no. The detective opens it anyway. The suspect is awake now. In this episode, I examine the dumbest interrogation tactics ever attempted. A suspect who tried to sleep through his own interrogation. A suspect who asked for a pillow. A suspect who actually fell asleep and started snoring. The detective did not wake him. He let him sleep. Then he played the recording of the snoring for the jury. The suspect was convicted. The episode breaks down the psychology of suspects who try to avoid questioning by any means necessary. The sleep tactic is a form of passive resistance. The suspect hopes that the detective will give up. The detective never gives up. The suspect eventually wakes up. The interrogation continues. The confession comes. The suspect regrets falling asleep. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play because trying to fall asleep during an interrogation is not a power move. It is a sign that you have already lost. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/red-tree-crime--6847553/support.
