Crime Suspect Interrogations

Taxonomy Code: FN-1300.1370

Law enforcement offices that question suspects in a crime with the goal of eliciting accurate, reliable, actionable information. In modern day policing, interviewing, questioning and interrogation techniques are measured, objective and ethical in contrast to the "third degree" coercive interviews of the past. They are aimed at discovering the truth, not just getting a confession to a crime; and if a confession is forthcoming, having it accepted as evidence by the court. Importantly, an objective investigator must always be prepared to hear an explanation that will challenge the direct evidence or the assumptions of the circumstantial evidence that led to the individual's detention or arrest.
