Full show notes here: https://www.jordanharbinger.com/456 What We Discuss with Laura Nirider: 🔒 Two to five percent of people currently serving time in prison have been falsely convicted. 🔒 False confessions and admissions are present in 15 to 20 percent of all DNA exonerations. 🔒 The United States is one of the only countries in the world that allows police to lie about evidence during interrogations. 🔒 Why so many people are coerced into providing false confessions during interrogations that are gentle compared to the more “hands-on” approach taken by police in decades past. 🔒 How Laura is working to clean up interrogation techniques so they’re still effective in solving crimes without trapping innocent people in the system. 🔒 And much more… According to the California Innocence Project, 25 percent of overturned wrongful convictions involve a false confession. So why would anyone confess to a crime they didn’t commit? It seems like an absurd notion, but the fact of the matter is: it happens all the time, and it’s usually the result of an interrogation carried out by someone using outdated techniques to coerce such a confession in order to close a case — which isn’t quite the same thing as securing justice. In this episode, we talk to Laura Nirider — the co-director of the Center on Wrongful Convictions at Northwestern Pritzker School of Law, and the co-host of the Wrongful Conviction: False Confessions podcast — about how these interrogations work, the consequences of the wrongful convictions that inevitably result, and how the system can (and must) be reformed to prevent false confessions from ruining lives and thwarting justice.
