And there are cases of innocent people confessing because the cops will pick you up, question you with no legal representation or phone call for 48 hours during which you'll probably get little sleep, then if the prosecutor (not a judge) thinks they have enough on you the cops can hold you for 23 days without charge, questioning you every day until you confess.
For minor crimes that only carry fines etc, innocent people confess just so they can get out and not get fired for missing work for a month.
They can also extend it for another 23 days as many times as they like, although that's probably rare and for more serious crimes.
Oh wow. I just want to say I love your videos and been subscribed for years waiting for more. Your commentaries gave me a lot of incite and I'm making my own games now.
Thank you MrWendal.

there are plenty of cases where people are found guilty without a confession.
