Vincent Smothers Detroit Killer Confession Coerced? Not so fast!
Vincent Smothers – Detroit Killer
Confession Coerced? Not so fast!
Stan B. Walters
Detroit killer Vincent Smothers was confessing to multiple murders in just 4 hours of interview and interrogation. He has admitted to at least 8 hired hits – one for as little as $50 and the most recent of a Detroit cop’s wife. His attorney now says the interview was too long and arduous and all the confessions should be dismissed.
Really ….! So if your client confesses it must automatically mean he had to be coerced.
We have got to stop this nonsense! I don’t know all the details of the Vincent Smothers case nor the interrogation tactics or details. I’m tired of hearing the first word out a defense attorney’s mouth is that all confessions are coerced.
(See Stan’s On-Line Course “False Confessions & Contaminated Statements)
We need to start recording ALL interrogations, stop the abuse of the criminal justice system, and ALWAYS blame the cop first if the bad guy confesses, gets convicted or if Grandma gets tazed because she failed to follow a lawful order and resisted arrest. Juries and ESPECIALLY the public needs to see what really goes on during an interrogation.
