Duped: Why Innocent People Confess and Why We Believe Them by Saul Kassin
informative
reflective
tense
medium-paced
5.0
A great dive into the sociology of false confessions. The author does a great job explaining how people find themselves in these situations, how the deck is often stacked against them and how there is failure at all points in the justice system.
The whole book is easy to understand and follows with real cases some more infamous then others and a breakdown at the end on how to prevent innocent people becoming victims themselves.
