I've heard this tip from someone. Whenever arrested, the first thing you do is ask for a lawyer. Don't answer their questions, don't submit to any of their interrogations. ASK FOR AN ATTORNEY. Those cops can have an entire investigation thrown out if they refuse. Asking for a lawyer is the most important thing to do.

Here's another tip for people in the US, your miranda rights are required to be read at an interrogation, not an arrest. Keep your mouth shut if arrested, anything you say while being arrested can be used whether the miranda rights were read or not. Most of the time the judge will side with the police and say that an arrest does not constitute an interrogation therefore reading of the rights is not required

Public defenders are so overworked its like having no one. Real lawyers cost more money than most can afford. So most people end up pleading guilty to lower sentences because it is really the only choice.

But 99% of criminals who actually committed the crime say they're innocent, so I don't understand how they got these numbers.

Path of least resistance. Especially with the twisted way the U.S. justice system is. When its framed as go to jail for 15yrs for a crime you didnt commit vs 5 yrs probation and the odds look really stacked against you, a lot of people will just confess to avoid the worser option.

If it's India, even after you confess, it's just around an odd 15 to 20 years to get a proper and final trial. Innocents are blackmailed with court cases because everyone knows that they do t have that kind of life span to survive and win a court case even if one is 100% true or confident. That's the nature of the system here. It's partially due to lack of judges die to political muck. It's used to arm twist good judges by politicians since the political ground has more valid cases than a common citizen. These cases drag on for atleast 15 or more years. We can't find a biased system and pray for a fair trial.

That’s because it’s legal for the police to lie to people to force false confessions. It’s unethical and causes a lot of innocent people to land in jail on the taxpayers dime

I do remember that when Gorbachev was president in the glasnost times he asked in humor if our president George H.W. Bush knew what the only word in English that everyone on earth knew was, and Bush Sr. didn't, and Gorbachev replied with a smile :) the word-- "Okay."

This is a very misleading statement, false pleads depends on so many factors. Interrogation techniques, length of interrogation, state of mind of person being interrogated etc

Part of the problem is cops etc. consider "I am sorry you got hurt" to be a confession.

This explains a lot. My husband n I just renovated a house we bought n there was cat piss ALL OVER THE HOUSE when we bought it n I could legit get a whiff n track it all the way down to the exact spot n it literally DROVE ME FUCKEN NUTS.. always getting a slight whiff of ammonia while I'm walking thru to living room or while I'm about to fall asleep... meanwhile my husband is living his blissful, weak-ass nose life n basically gaslighting me n telling me that I'm nuts... well he learned real quick once we got the carpet torn up that I AM NOT CRAZY n we were literally surrounded by urine... I honestly wish my nose would stop working so well... I can tune out annoying noises, I can tune out blinking lights or even someone like... obnoxiously poking me (youngest child of 3, only girl, 2 older brothers! I was tortured as a kid!) for hours on end... but I CANNOT IGNORE A SMELL I DONT LIKE.. or even ones I do like. I've been known to sniff out cannabis stashes before too' I'm a damn dog.

Technically true. You always have the ability to do this but your brain is stopping you using the full force of your muscles or you could literally snap your own bones. Adrenaline hinders this and can allow you to use more of your muscle strength.
