many people live in lot of basically subdivided apartments within a flat basically one room apartments where there's barely enough room for even a bed they share washing facilities toilet facilities kitchen facilities and government officials say they believe that the virus here has been spreading through broken sewage pipes now so far hong kong has recalled recalled at about 10000 coated infections since the outbreak began in january last year we've had more than $160.00 deaths but this is a 1st no lockdown up until now and of course the worry for many people is this lockdown might have to spread to other areas if we start to see infections rising in those areas. brains prime minister is warning that the coronavirus very and found in the u.k. is not only more contagious but could be more deadly and news comes just as infection rates had began to drop a boris johnson says britain can't consider unlocking until the government is

you were police were with you also if you checked talking about her this is your family. you leave that up i just stand here and watch your client 5 minutes you're not going home tonight i can guarantee you that. welcome back to wrongful conviction which today we're going to be doing a deep dive into an issue that is as fascinating as it is to our finding which is the phenomenon of false confessions and my guest today is going to be jane fisher

are you also and who's currently working on 4 cases involving false confessions and each is fascinating in its own way so jane welcome 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 sold 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 and nobody really can tell the difference between a good confession and one that isn't the 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 trice a cocktail. 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 where he 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 the victim was that it was her landlord and so they are start looking into renee 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 and detectives and everything and 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 the court was the cop on the case just the way her body. 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 it kareen was in florida at the time of our like well. i guess they knew karim 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 karim and 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 renay 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 that in consistencies to clearly show that the confession is false. and there's a cream walker drove me to 90 longmeadow and him her up. and was i was going to go into the front door and cream 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 one out if that happened he would be standing punching her here right when cream head here in the face he knocked the wig off louise's head

a wig landed on the floor in the kitchen but that's literally the kitchen. he tried to tie louise up with the plastic already had then cream 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'm just in the it's jean fisher byron also in renee lynch's attorney i have a call with her this morning. ok thinks. oh. oh oh.

oh oh oh oh why are quite right. i know it's hard. rene went to trial she testified but very incoherent way 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 this i would never cross a contests where 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

kind of person that gives a false confession we are all vulnerable under the circumstance of interrogation we are all there been some trained detectives i've spoken to who say i can get anybody to confess to. many of the lobos that they have a 95 percent confession right. but 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're producing a whole 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 a woman and they're going to delay the confessions trumped the d.n.a. changes everything it 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. the judge or jury to look past the forced conversion is that i'm sure the process. in her name 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 the sciri of a case that they know is not true they made the trial basically matcher.

it just makes me so jaded and really disgusted with the district attorney's office is 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 of 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 had 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.

by. humans. 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 court 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. and remember decide to go down just a few moments about. and then. present to me you know i have.

ms as i was being. present in the house and so. i had taken. its hands during play time and placing her own mother. and so i remember a short. you know short of forward in that or question or. so when you say give you pleasure at one time you know the central horizon. would have to be. i don't know you know. my memory of it it's like there's no do it if you read out this demand i did that's your handwriting and it just putting it over briefly doesn't look like it's been changed

in any way. and that's your signature at the bottom because you read this out earlier today you're going to show it to camera. i don't even think people in the u.s. 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 that quote we move 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. here very serious allegations of sexual abuse involving very young children were brought to the attention. and. are 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 historical fact is awful france has an i.q. what dansko was it appointed about him and its function he wanted and still was c.p. 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 system and sit for it to pass says just listen for what to put

in a new ear and which is here in new york i can't for. the forefront see treating it seems to stop. the most false confession cases they're falsely confessing to an actual crime that they didn't commit in this case he was confessing to something that never even happened right 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 our firm represented corey wise on his civil rights case 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 to majors but convicted in the infamous central park jogger case in 1989 the rape and beating of a female jogger made headlines nationwide the teenagers are going fast but later claimed that their confessions have been covered. when the actual perpetrator stepped forward for 5 men were fined the economy over the past time for 5 year was 7 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 derive again arrest and they got him.

when you get to the false confession in that case it was a classic you know. mismatch they were totally overmatched underrepresented if represented at all i don't know if you could the core even have anyone in the room with now is going to be 16 so he was considered an adult sadly and so his mom was not allowed in there and they you know hadn't 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 how important this point is to you know what. it is hard for people to understand how this can happen how out 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 was going home right 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 confront the most typical response because i want to go home. innocent people often say afterwards 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 it to the lab great they think that claiming they have to any of that 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 right ok all right 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 the 2 tests. right because you're in a position now where you know that there's going 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 not true or this is just. one of the things i think they made you say was that you cut her on the legs where did you how did you come up with that i don't know. came from no i don't know she'd 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 upon my son when they're really really did not exist in my room did not exist as i would just heard i just felt going to there probably exist in my world just just for the hurt that i had i said something i'd new form with the mother who would put them out of the mire it was a it was a rule 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 which were. so is his shop or were. anti fascist anti establishment and pro violence despite the recent official disbanding of its militarized wing a basque separatist movement is found alive and well on the terraces of the build tiles stadium. a place where political revolutionaries share

a platform an ideology with violent football hooligans. and read all death on al-jazeera. al jazeera world takes a road trip across spain spanish people enough to tell you they are and where they come from and i am no exception. one woman's journey sitting in her heritage and i know covering new insights into christian spaniards of muslim origin it's a story that seems to have been airbrushed from history. in search of my roots on al-jazeera. one half scottish and half lebanese so diversity is really important to me and al-jazeera is the most diverse place i've ever worked so we have so many different nationalities and this is a nice book together in this one news organization and this diversity of

perspective is reflected in our coverage giving a more accurate representation of the world we report on and that's a key strength of al-jazeera. one route already. not you all deserve me as a whole robin doha one of our top news stories doldrum 2nd the pitchman trial has been delayed until the week of february the 8th it follows an agreement between democratic and republican leaders in the u.s. senate the former president is accused of inciting the siege of the capitol building by mall but his supporters earlier this month john 100 possible from washington d.c. . what happens now is the house will send over the articles of impeachment on monday on tuesday the house managers who act as prosecutors in that impeachment

trial they'll be sworn in on tuesday and then on the 8th that trial will begin in from most of what we've heard it sounds like that trial could be completed in his little is a week there's only one charge that's inciting an insurrection in the evidence is largely the video that we have all seen president joe biden assigned to executive orders to help families hit hard by the covert 900 pandemic biden is looking for bipartisan support in congress to pass a stimulus package worth 1.9 trillion dollars now tens of thousands of people in hong kong have been ordered to stay at home they create a virus lockdown affects the densely populated districts which accounted for half of all new cases over the past week hong kong has been struggling to contain a new outbreak since november britain's prime minister is warning that the current virus variant found in the u.k. is not only more contagious but could be more deadly the news comes just as

infection rates have begun to drop but boris johnson says britain can't consider unlocking until the government is confident the vaccination program is protecting the population. belgium is banning residents from taking non-essential trips abroad to stop the spread of a more contagious covert 19 variant the restriction will stay in place until march police in eastern russia clashed with supporters of the jailed kremlin critic alexina valmy nationwide rallies have been called on saturday in defiance of a ban on the guardians the opposition leader who was arrested in moscow last weekend after returning from germany where he was treated for a near fatal poisoning. the un's refugee agency says the number of people displaced by the violence in africa region have now passed 2000000 it says humanitarian teams a dangerously overstretched those were the headlines and back with more news in half an hour witnesses next on al-jazeera i'll see you soon.

respect right yeah. i bet what happens here is she says he knocks her out on the kitchen floor and they're like man 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. but 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 knew they were 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 to live oh really was that their image was getting tarnished you know so became very little right. with. one taking on a case like rene's 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. it's. 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. from the newburgh. 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 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 her how they were in bed for together thanks. for your. call are going to. come kong you are i hope so please place because it has her name is due in 25 to life for something she didn't do. and we really are are hitting a lot of dead ends and rockwell's are huge going to be

a huge help to us ok i'm very much thank you sir. i know by if you mean you can i have no practical ok. oh. ok. do you mind if i said there. is only thing. good that's ok do you know already. i don't have a stream for you or your body will feel fine no we're writing we're trying. do you remember interacting with any of the police officers back then mr g.q. may as june was name was very effective some of. my impression looking back thank you all here she's guilty well she's guilty and he'll go make sure they do

some time it was a bloody crime so now we know i was my security d.n.a. so these are all somebody else i could be in right now. that 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 is 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 yeah it's just work out. i just want to talk to you because i'm helping rene trying to get her out can we come by what do i have to just talk to me. also just think you so much.

we need to ask the most and the most important thing i mean is so how she was to what her actions what the police who are. living now with young right with on drugs you know in our lives for me every day and he didn't have a car with a ok good for 30 promise you anything like where you going to get out let me go. right right i want to get out and so you actually did get out and thank you we really appreciate it. ok so that's good that's helpful.

why don't. you. well at least 3 years on one. will render one toy i was arrested in the year 2000 and accused a murderer of a young schoolteacher in denver he's 14 years old renzo when this happened and he is tiny like maybe 110 pounds. he killed or.

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 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 wow 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 rethink on a fast. 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 well. rather that the real issues that you need to show you that 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 normalizing statements like you know water fire 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 resident i don't think you're going to have begun. i didn't want to jack the car into one that 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 now 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 presume 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 a sleaze house it was not. the reason you see things in that low you keep your head for hours yesterday our man who kicked you in the head of course the building a story for him to tell. there is you know the right ridge those shoes wrote

part of the dre shoes. around so was it your room but. 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 was kicked in the head shoe dragging her through the blood you know he's got it all so later a judge and the jury is going to watch the 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 oh. you made that up. i just stand here watch your cry for 5 minutes you wait then tough you know. you're your home you're not going home tonight i can guarantee that you are from and they do not put you in juvenile hall for it which with

people in jail you read tomorrow you would talk now or say goodbye the amount it's a pretty clear and your cousin and then your sister and your girlfriend and your life. if you read into any longer. you ready. room. what can an innocent person do or extricate themselves from the situation anything i guess you could hold out right forever 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 they 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 melts and lorenzo have all been exonerated by renee 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 in prison and it's probably not getting the right medical treatment for that you know we're just hoping that you know time could be on our side and we can get her out sooner rather than later but i mean she is a. a life that's. wasted. and 20 years since monks i mean on the dawn of time it's my mom she wants that oh. oh oh oh oh fortunate wife calls on yeah i'll side of ours just have to be patient wait you know. and i don't know is the understand how you could live without for so long a car that feels. just know she's in there. this

is unfair that book as they all know you just go with the cars of the law of the sun for you know. not. just try to make a better way for markets for much over in them a short of it all have to suffer and endure what our own drum of us come alive almost from the door for us which with the former all right well for me it's hard to get out of those trends. they should be proud of yourself i'm sure she's proud of you. and all them of the states of the of the states to everybody and. i hope you reunite in person. i hope that we can make that happen for you.
