For anyone following the Gillette double murder trial, the news story below is a perfect example of how the police can lie to you to elicit a statement. Detectives told the defendant that one of the victims was still alive and identified him as her assailant, which at trial turned out to be a false statement intended to elicit a confession. If you are ever being questioned by police don’t make any statements and request a lawyer to make them end the interrogation. Don’t let police trick you into making self-incriminating statements.
