Yet, when police bring kids in for\u003cbr\u003equestioning, they use the same interrogation tactics they use for adults, \u003cbr\u003eincluding trickery, deception, and lying to elicit confessions or to produce\u003cbr\u003eincriminating evidence against the defendants. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Kids, Cops, and Confessions, Barry Feld offers the\u003cbr\u003efirst report of what actually happens when police question juveniles. Drawing\u003cbr\u003eon remarkable data, Feld analyzes interrogation tapes and transcripts, police\u003cbr\u003ereports, juvenile court filings and sentences, and probation and sentencing\u003cbr\u003ereports, describing in rich detail what actually happens in the interrogation\u003cbr\u003eroom. Contrasting routine interrogation and false confessions enables police, \u003cbr\u003elawyers, and judges to identify interrogations that require enhanced scrutiny, \u003cbr\u003eto adopt policies to protect citizens, and to assure reliability and integrity\u003cbr\u003eof the justice system.
