| Sumario: | "Taking a linguistic point of view, Roger W. Shuy offers a practical explanation of how confessions work. Using his 1993 benchmark work Language Crimes as his model, Shuy examines criminal confessions, the interrogations that elicit them, and the deceptive language that plays a role in the confession event. He presents transcripts from numerous interrogations and analyzes how language is used, how constitutional rights are protected (or not), consistency and truthfulness, suggestibility, written confessions, as well as unvalidated confessions. He concludes the volume with explicit advice on how to conduct interrogations that will yield credible evidence."--BOOK JACKET. |
