i'm about this in in doha the top stories on all jazeera the u.s. senate has launched the formal impeachment trial of president donald trump the chief justice of the u.s. supreme court has been sworn in as the presiding judge along with $99.00 senators as the jury and that process has been complicated after an aide to donald trump's lawyer claims the president is guilty. says trump knew exactly what was going on with efforts to pressure ukraine's leader more than 2700 people have entered guatemala in a fast growing caravan bound for the united states the migrants many of whom are honduran will 1st have to enter mexico the trumpet ministrations been pressuring

central american countries to accept more migrants john holmes in guatemala city at a shelter where migrants have started arriving. we're actually in the overflow section of guatemala city's biggest migrant shelter the cost of them a grant a couple of hours ago there was no $1.00 here let me show you what there is here now there's 2 sorts of being given out now to people that are rising food water as i say in the last couple of hours we've seen a lot of people here there's clothing bins of finesse you turn to your left a little bit there looks people here putting on fresh clothes a lot of them been traveling a couple of days ready to ride from honduras and then you can see people just beginning to pay down for the night there's quite a lot of people of the earth the people that are coming here coming for different reasons some of them we've been speaking to coming because they say basically i don't earn enough to live on so much in debt as a result of not owning enough to live that i can't go on in my country need to get

out other people are saying that they need to escape from violence in honduras in particular is really been in the grip of several gangs for quite a number of time going from the modest suffered through cheer they're called so a lot of people are trying to escape that as well these people are trying to get through mexico and probably to the united states mexico has said that it's not going to allow that it's been under a lot of pressure from president donald trump the united states for quite some time to not allow people from central america to reach the u.s. is southern border so you can expect once these people get to the border of guatemala or mexico to be met with quite a shock a sort of strict resistance there. russia has denied bombing civilians in the deescalation zone in syria as it led province since a ceasefire was agreed attacks on the country's last remaining rebel held area resumed on wednesday of these 21 people have been killed in recent days. iran's

you were a police headquarters with you also i detected talking about her that you're going to ensure you leave that up i just stand here and watch you cry or 5 minutes you're not going home tonight i can guarantee you that. welcome back to wrongful conviction when jason today we're going to be doing a deep dive into an issue that is as fascinating as it is terrifying which is the phenomenon of false confessions and my guest today is going to be jane fisher by reality and who's currently working on 4 cases involving false confessions and each

is fascinating in its own way so jane while some thank you for convection happy to be here and jane is an attorney who is an expert on false confessions so jane how did you get into this work i was a public defender in manhattan here in new york city for about 3 years and we saw a lot of police misconduct you know we were doing arraignments up until 1 am in the morning and you see people beat up or you know people whose cases get dismissed who get no compensation so my husband and i left the legal aid society with the hopes of doing civil rights work. my name is old castle i'm a distinguished professor of psychology at john jay college of criminal justice once a false confession is taken the case is closed nobody really can tell the difference between a good confession and one that isn't. problem with all of this is that there are tactics that can be used to get innocent people and i don't just mean vulnerable

innocent people i mean people who are sitting around in this world to confess to crimes they didn't commit. any time you do an exoneration case where there's been a false confession it's like trying to write a tries to. everybody's already against you the person's been convicted by a jury the judge thinks he's guilty the jury thinks he's guilty now you have to convince everybody that they're wrong. so a case that you're deeply invested in is a case of an alien ship who has been in prison for 20 years renee lynch. was a case we took about 2 and a half now maybe 3 years ago now and she was accused and

convicted of killing her landlord in buffalo new york in 1995. and it's also obviously a false confession case the police are going crazy and they can't solve it 18 months go by and renee's connection to to the victim was that it was her landlord and so they are start looking into run a who at the time was heavily addicted to drugs crack cocaine and. she gets arrested for something else and they start interrogating her and she confesses to killing her landlord with this guy karim so she says karim and i went to my landlord's house we were going to rob her the robbery goes bad and karim steps or so it's us she's a good century can make it a felony murder being present during the commission of a crime and somebody gets killed we started sort of doing you know just regular google searches on the players' names the detectives and everything in this t.v.

show women behind bars comes up and they've done an episode on bernie's case where they got in the in the prison and interviewed her and then interviewed this joseph court was the cop on the case just the way her body slumped when she decided to go you just saw it was time to tell the truth. i believe her confession is kind of nonsense there's inconsistency between the physical evidence and what she says and during the show he says well i mean we knew that corinne walker was in florida at the time of our crime my partner looked into it and karim was in florida at the time of our crime like well. i guess they knew kareem walker was in florida at the time the crime then rene's confession can't possibly be true because she's confessing to going to rob the landlord with kareem at the defense been able to put that on her confession would have made no sense but the defense was never to.

our goal is of course to get renee out of prison but it can take a really long time sometimes many years and one of the 1st things we do in cases like this is to comb through the confession and find all the in consistencies to clearly show that the confession is false. and there's a cream walker drove me to 90 longmeadow and i am her. and was i was going to go into the front door and kareem was going to come up the back door. he was going to tie her up with a piece of white extension cord that he brought with him at that time kareem hit louise in the side of the face and louise fell to the floor in kind of went out if that happened he would be standing punching her here right when chremes head here in the face he knocked the wig off louise's head a little landed on the floor in the kitchen but that's literally the kitchen. he

tried to tie louise up with the plastic or he had then kareem comes from behind louise he stabbed her at least twice however we know it's 8 times. so the only thing she gets right is that the witness knocked off that there's a plastic cord involved in this case that's correct and the phone cord is where the extra d.n.a. is ringback. i missed in the it's jean fisher byron alston renee lynch's attorney i have a call with her this morning. ok thinks. oh. oh. oh oh. oh. 000-000-0000 why are quite right.

i. i know it's hard. rene went to trial she testified but very incoherently she was high during the trial. you know it was she was not a good witness for herself she recanted right away afterwards and her confession is that as it was coerced when i talked to him about this they're like well i would never prosecute that's what people say i've been talking about this for 30 years and that's the 1st thing everybody says i get it but it wouldn't happen to me. it's not one time the person that gives a false confession we are all vulnerable under the circumstance of interrogation we

are all there have been some training detectives i've spoken to who say i can get anybody to confess to many of them will boast that they have a 95 percent confession right but it's conceivable that a lesser of a lesser near perfect at identifying the perpetrator that is every suspect you identify is the perpetrator right if you've got a confession rate at that level you produce an awful lot of false confessions we were in a lynch when i talked to her about it she explained to me i was so shocked that they convicted me she said because there was no evidence of a confession so powerful it can stand alone so here's the jury on the one hand they've got the confessions of the woman and they go delay the confessions trumped the d.n.a. changes everything it's sometimes i've likened the final product of a confession to a hollywood production it is scripted by the police theory of the case it is rehearsed and then lights action camera ready to go. and that's what the jury

sees they don't see the whole production they just see the final i don't see how. a judge or jury to look past a forced confession is that ocean approached. the internet is case we're trying to get permission to test all the old evidence from d.n.a. but to do that we have to collect as much information about her innocence as we possibly can. go back and interview old witnesses collect documents go back to the crime scene. i keep coming back to this thing that the cops knew he was in florida and kept going with the story that they did together how can they be permitted to go forward with a serious of a case that they know is not true they made the trial basically matcher and.

it just makes me so jaded and really disgusted with the district attorney's offices that i feel like you know the you know they're supposed to be at the top of the chain right there it's supposed to be the ones making sure the cops made mistakes or people below the cops made mistakes then they're the ones who are responsible for fixing it why not do d.n.a. testing we're not infallible we can all make mistakes i mean renee's going to be in prison for the rest of her life why not just check in rene's case it's especially frustrating because i mean they certainly believe that this was done not the stabbing was not done by her right so there is a set i mean they're basically admitting that they have a cold case and there's a murder out there and they still don't want to do it. we have a number of documented cases in which the person who falsely confessed actually came to believe the lie that they were told about their own behavior. which is.

a whole nother level of insanity and some of them believe it. for a long time afterwards right. here. in the melted thompson case we had he was a danish inturn who came. to danish he was a college student studying to become a teacher and he came and interned at i.p.s. which is really you know like a $20000.00 a year preschool up by the un and it was a code teacher who accuses meltzer of molesting all the kids in the class and he's on the cover of the daily news they take his focus his facebook profile pictures him with his niece on his shoulders so they put that on the cover of the daily news and write sex monster and they go arrest him in the morning and bring him into the

station and they have a female cop interrogate him she tells him while you know we have video of you molesting these kids which they had videos but he's not molesting anybody so they had this woman who accused him had taken videos of him in the classroom interacting normally with children and so either the cops hadn't watched it or they had watched it and were blatantly lying to him but there was no video of him molesting kids but he hears that right and he thinks holy crap well if i'm on video i must have done it right they let him continue to believe this lie that he's caught red handed on tape molesting these kids and i think that that you know he started you could tell through the hole when they finally are recording him he's doubting himself you know he's he's wondering did i do this.

i mean you can see. you. it's rachel ferrari you know and i mean assistant district attorney in new york county mr thompson. can you tell me why you're here today yes. i'm here because i'm in the port of. my colleagues and. for inappropriate. behavior with kids ok so why don't you tell me. probably anything how this started what happened you know what happened. you know well that's a feel and remember this had to go around a few moments about. and then. present to me that i had.

missed that site has been to one. percent and. so. i have taken. this is a. place and place in her own mind. consider a measure. you know for sure if for them that your question or your. so what when you say given pleasure at one time that was central. to it would have to be. i don't know you know. my memory of this lady is no devitt if you read out and demand i did that's your handwriting and it is just losing it over briefly because it looks like it's been changed in any way. and that's your signature

at the bottom of page if you read this out earlier today you're going to show it to camera. i don't even think people in the us really get that the police are allowed to lie to you i think most people would think that if i am speaking to a police officer he's time to the truth but now to tom's i mean in denmark it's illegal for the police to lie to you so he really i think was was you know really says extra susceptible to something like that it took us filing the civil rights suit to even get access to these tapes the district attorney wouldn't give it to us when the criminal case was pending we asked the court we moved for a court order to get it the judge just wouldn't give it to us but they sat on these tapes for 8 months he had this case hanging over his head and they knew that there was nothing in the tapes right and because was that was the only evidence there was yes luckily mel to never got convicted right we were able to stop it before that

happened but it took i mean it almost killed him. it's very serious allegations of sexual abuse involving very young children were brought to the attention you know my thoughts are with us tom. if you tell everything to dismiss this case after our nation is gathered in our stands now. we have to turn and. this. is what i missed it didn't oh man it's he still in fact is awful for what dansko was it appointed him and it's function you want it and still be him so he put in a treaty between the elite sport from sin no one say it's going to help put the 2 end of the good in salem and sitting for it to pass says the student forward to put it in

a new ear and which is here in new york i can't for. the forefront see treating its true stories of. the most false confession cases there falsely confessing to an actual crime that they didn't commit in this case he was confessing to something that never even happened. as you said so poignantly i mean his life was ruined and he didn't even get convicted. you know the central park jogger case was my 1st interaction with false confessions are firm represented corey wise on his civil rights case i'm not that's a hell of a way to start i mean you're diving right in at the deep end there yeah you know the circumstances at play in that case were huge amount of pressure on the police

and the authorities to make arrests and make them stick 5 teenagers because they couldn't be infamous central park jogger case in 1989 the rape and beating of a female jogger made headlines nationwide the teenagers are confessed but later claimed that their confessions have been covered. when the actual perpetrator stepped forward the 5 men were playing the economy for the past time for 507 years in prison and one of them corey was 30. 1 the most notorious crimes in the history of new york city it was a crime in which a woman who was a wealthy upper east side investment banker was out jogging at dusk and was dragged into the woods in central park and almost beaten to death and it was front page news every day everywhere and they are out to get arrested and they got him.

when you get to the fos confession in that case it was a classic you know. mismatch they were totally overmatched underrepresented if represented at all i don't know what they could pick or even have anyone in the room with now it's been 216 so he was considered an adult sadly and so his mom was not allowed in there and they you know had given them lawyers they all waived their their miranda rights. to that. this is very very serious this may be very we don't know if this woman is there. i want to know exactly where you are and exactly what and exactly what you said. after seeing those pictures i'm sure that you can see. what it is to what.

it is hard for people to understand how this can happen how how they could produce a confession to something they didn't do and it really is a complicated set of stories there is no one reason. you know corey was confessed to get out of this bad situation he was under intense pressure for many many hours right he was likely be told that others were giving stories and that he needed to cooperate in order to go it is very telling in the central park 5 case that every one of them every one of the boys and every one of the parents who were present were surprised that the boys were arrested after their statements every one of them thought i was going home well you know what that sounds crazy right here thought you were gone or confess to

a rape and go home right but you know that one false confessors were interviewed after. and they've been exonerated and the 1st question everybody wants those i don't understand why don't you confirm the most typical response because i want to go home. innocent people often say after wards you know i was so tired i was so stressed i figured let me sign this confession it'll all work itself out in the end the detectives often say you know we have d.n.a. we're going to send them to the lab. they think that claiming they have to enable a bluff is a way to scare the criminal into submission it may be right but if the person you're talking to is not the criminal but an innocent person that the law becomes a promise of future exoneration paradoxically makes it easier to confess right letting cade courtley we're going to do some tests we're going to take blood samples from a lot of different people. right i just want to know that if we do that we will

probably get an order to take a sample from you. and then we'll compare it to tests. right because you're in a position now where you know that there's an to be a match. that you'd be better off if you tell us about it now or the stairs instead of saying something that's natural or is this. one of the things i think they made you say was that you cut her on the legs where how did you come up with that i don't know. came from no i don't know she had made it up i don't know i came from no i don't know. like why does someone do that right that's what everybody wants to know and they're liable to happen to you that well had to do was play well as that was played with because i think most people would like to think i would like to think to myself like i would never do that but did you ever say to yourself damn why did i tell these lives why do i tell these lies i

put my son been in every religion that exists in my really did not exist as i would just heard i just felt going to there probably exist in my world which is just for the hurt that i did i said something i've formed with the mother who would put them out of the mire it was a it was a river but just to go home or guess my way nor me. i was worried that it was going to be true it was one of courage where it all so was his shop owner were. at work to al-jazeera english since it's law as a principle present and as a correspondent with any breaking news story world to hear from those people who would normally not get the voices heard on the international news channel one they would all be very proud all fluids when we covered the whole earth quake of 2050 a terrible natural disaster and the story that needed to be told from the heart of

the affected area to be that to tell the people story was very important of the telling. al-jazeera explores prominent figures of the 20th century and how libraries influence the course of history the felt that he did not get enough credit for ending a budget he worked to be the big historical figure but he was mandela the biggest icon in the world the prisoner and the president who came together to end up apartheid in south africa nelson mandela and f.w. de klerk face to face on all just. in the heart of the amazon believe me in families but then lives in peril to harvest brazil nuts. and canting the congo to the capital is an even more dangerous challenge. risking it to then

libya. on al-jazeera. rural. or. robot as in and doha the top stories on august the u.s. senate has launched the formal impeachment trial of president donald trump the chief justice of the us supreme court has been sworn in as the presiding judge along with $99.00 senators as the jury that process has been complicated after an aide to donald trump's lawyer claimed the president is guilty left says trump knew exactly what was going on with efforts to pressure ukraine's leader. more than 2700 people have entered guatemala in a fast growing caravan bound for the united states the migrants many of whom are

honduran will 1st have to enter mexico the trumpet ministration has been pressuring central american countries to accept more migrants john holeman is in guatemala city and explains the tough and border policy the migrants are going to have to face if they continue their journey these people are trying to get through mexico and probably to the united states mexico has said that it's not going to allow that it's been under a lot of pressure from president donald trump the united states for quite some time to not allow people from central america to reach the u.s. southern border so you can expect once these people get to the border of guatemala or mexico to be met with quite a show sort of strict resistance there russia has denied bombing civilians in the deescalation zone in syria is province since a ceasefire was agreed attacks on the country's last remaining rebel held area resumed on wednesday at least 21 people have been killed in recent days iran's

president says new dialogue with the world over his country's nuclear program is still possible and he wants to prevent war but haasan rouhani has also revealed iran is now enriching more uranium per day than before signing the nuclear deal in 2015 the taliban says it's offer the united states a temporary ceasefire in afghanistan of up to 10 days it's being seen as an opportunity to restart talks in doha which president champ has called the dead in september authorities in the philippines are urging those who have evacuated new the town hall volcano to leave their homes immediately because of the threat of a major eruption some buildings in towns near the volcano have collapsed under the weight of falling ash and those are the headlines coming up next and al-jazeera it's witness false confessions.

1st there right. i bet what happens here is she says he knocks her out on the kitchen floor and they're like it doesn't work doesn't work renee not good enough didn't didn't he do in the living room look at this photo look at what happens here oh yeah. it certainly doesn't fit with renee's no concise no i want to see a real place report i think you heard that some wishful thinking mike i don't think there is a real police report i mean. i just don't. maybe they sort of new that we're names confession was not so good or not true and so

they didn't really want kareem because they didn't really believe that he was there . that or that it happened like that and so if they get him in that then they could end up with nobody bacon today i believe that amherst was you know in their ranking safest place in america lived oh really so their image was getting tarnished you know so became very little bright. one taking on a case like rene is the danger is always the case of events or other crime scene evidence has not been preserved. if there's no crime scene evidence or case evidence. then there's nothing to d.n.a. test and if there's no d.n.a. is. to test it's extremely hard to prove that your client is innocent.

that's really. right. in rene's case it was a very bloody crime scene the murder weapon was never found but there was a purse that had a bloody fingerprint in it and there was a drawer in the bedroom with a bloody fingerprint on it they d.n.a. tested some things but not those and the only d.n.a. found at the crime scene was the victims. you found anything you know. i think out of 41 pieces of evidence they tested 7. for d.n.a. and so you know they're in trouble right at trial because you can't get convicted on your own confession alone so they go and they try to round up jailhouse snitches but only one who worked. so it was her confession and a jailhouse snitch which is so common in false confession cases and you have the

confession and then the extra evidence because there's no physical evidence the corroboration to the confession is a snitch. my . you know little woman her name a. long time ago. so i'm trying to get her out of prison because i don't believe that she did what she was accused of i need to talk with raquel there in bedford together thanks. for your. call are all playing kong we are i hope so please please because it has a name is due in 25 to life for something she didn't do. and we really are are hitting a lot of of dead ends and rockwell's a huge going to be a huge helped us ok i'm very much thank you sir.

i know by if you make the nano practical ok. oh. ok. do you mind if i said there. is only thing. good that's ok do you know read your. own history before you got your bible feel fine no we're trying we're trying to. do you remember interacting with any of the police officers back then mr g.q. may as june was name was very it is some of. my impression looking back thank you all here she's guilty while she was guilty and he go make sure you know who sometimes it was a bloody crime so now we know i was my security d.n.a.

so these are all somebody else to be in right now. it was one of the things that's one of the things that we hope to be able to do is retest the d.n.a. there's knowledge she has no chance some cases we get and we look at them and we even if we believe the person's innocent we can say well i mean there's just for a variety of reasons nothing we can do there's something we can do here but not a lot of people get exonerated. hello. and here is this work out. i just want to talk to you because i know helping renee trying to get her out can we come by what dr just talked to me. also is thank you so much.

we need to ask the most and the most important thing to me is so how she was to her what her actions what the police were. living with young right with on drugs you know an ally for me every day and he didn't have a car with a ok good for her promise you anything like where you going to get out let me out so we're with you right right i want to get out and so you actually did get out thank you we really appreciate it. ok so that's good that's helpful. to her. why don't. you.

at least 3 years on one of 2. will render one toy i was arrested in the year 2000 and accused of a murder of a young schoolteacher in denver he's 14 years old renzo when this happened and he is tiny like maybe 110 pounds. killed or near. the overlap between meltzer and lorenzo is mounted they tell him there's these

videotapes that show him abusing children which there aren't in lorenzo's they actually go as far as to have him take his shoes off and they do this whole charade where this very angry cop comes back in with the shoe and says well i'm a shoe print expert and your shoe matches the print at the crime scene was untrue. but. you feel.

in the united states police a permitted to lie about evidence. and tell you right now this afternoon we have something. to think long and fast about now. that is a shocking discovery to most people most western countries don't permit it the u.s. supreme court permits it so consequently you have 2 detectives making it seem as if we have independent evidence they sometimes will get very specific about what that evidence is telling us that you are involved in something they've already started that is shaping process and the mother already is believing it we're still going to see both of you they're not ready. to say go for it isn't it is it. rather that the real issues that you need to show me that you are in that are the same breath that you

get out you mean a state so he just introduced the word mistake he's about to develop this theme that enables lorenzo to admit some degree of involvement while minimizing his own role it's part of a package of techniques that in which you communicate to a suspect that i think you're a good person i understand what you've been through i sympathize with what you've been through often you hear normalising statements like you know water if i were in your situation i would have done the same thing and all by the way i don't think you intended to do this i think it was an accident or maybe your friends put you up to it or maybe you were provoked there you need to kill that one red zone. i don't do that i have a gun. i didn't want to jack the car and it went bad did. the communication moves in one direction it is designed to leave the person the suspect would think that the police don't think this is such a big deal right and therefore i'll be treated with leniency ok so one of my

choices either i can be the accomplice who refuses to speak or i can admit to what they want me to admit to given all of the minimisation that they've given me and enjoy the benefit of that but there are going to go. you. go how do you press they're going to do that they look at how much they have communicated already he now knows so much about this crime that whether he was there or had anything to do with it or not he now knows enough about it to give you a description. and renzo why were you there. while you're asleep house it was not. the result you see things in that little computer there for hours later jr who kicked you in the head of course the building a story for him to tell. or is it you know the very real huge. issue 0 part of the dreaded issues. around so was it your in.

your job is just right around he's now being set up so that when he's ready to give a statement he knows exactly what that statement should convey that he knows the gate he knows kicked in the head shoe dragging her through the blood you know he's got it all so later a judge and a jury is going to watch that final confession and they're going to be so impressed and unable to look past that because they keep on asking themselves what happened you know those things if he was in there right. stare me down. you made that up. i just said here watch your prior 5 minutes you wait that's the usual you you go home you're not going home tonight i guarantee that. and they do not put you and you'll be home for murder which with people at yale. you read my talk now or say goodbye to your

mom it's pretty clear and your cousin and your sister and your go friend and your life. you used a long good bye. you ready. room . what can an innocent person do next solve the situation and he said i guess you could hold out right forever because you just hold out. doesn't everybody have a breaking point so why must.

he was in prison for 14 years so he got out a 28 he was in solitary confinement for 4 years because when he goes into a grown up prison he's 14 and he can't be in with the general population so he goes to solitary confinement for 4 years for $14.00 to $18.00 lorenzo was exonerated and we have a civil rights too pending for him and the. opposition are you know they're they're moving to have the case dismissed based on qualified immunity for the police. so we talked about how out of these 4 cases you know corey and melt and lorenzo have all been exonerated by rene you know her case remains active and and she's been in prison now for 20 years her son grew up without a mom she you know he has she's grandkids now that she's never met other than on a phone through glass. she said to heart attacks while she's been
