And that means that they never do, obviously :)

UK cops are so careful about it, according to my two friends who do or did that work. They know their work can be undone in an instant if they're caught in a lie and it'll impact on them personally.

Funny how accountability in the police makes a difference to abuse!

I feel like this needs tobe said: Cops in the UK are still bastards.

I've known him for over 30 years so don't expect me to agree

I fail to see how this is an example of abuse. If someone is lying to you about evidence they have of a crime, then why would that induce a false confession? At worst you would plea guilty in court, when all the evidence (or lack of) would be presented.

This argument requires assuming that people are literally mentally incapable of knowing what they have done. They would have to be so susceptible to manipulation that they would accept any statement as true.
