 b. When false evidence is presented by an interrogator, suspects are not only more likely to confess to a crimethey did not commit but also to believe this confession.
 c. Jurors often fully discount a defendant's confession if they learn that the confession was obtained while thedefendant was being physically threatened by police.
 d. Police detectives use an average of five to six tactics when trying to obtain a confession.
