Coerced

A coerced confession is an involuntary confession. Coerced confessions are elicited by investigating officers’ use of coercive tactics. Coerced confessions are sometimes authentic but are often false. In addition to true, but involuntary confessions, there are two different types of false coerced confessions: coerced-compliant and coerced-internalized. Coerced confessions are an important topic in criminal psychology
