is incredible will to survive the arab awakening absolute power. if you want to help save the world. hello i'm daryn jordan in doha with the top stories here on al-jazeera israel's most senior military commander has revealed the development of new offensive plans against iran left and general aviva harvey says he's older his forces to step up preparations for possible military action in the coming year is also urging u.s. president joe biden to step back from any return to the 2015 nuclear. how to instruct their army to prepare a number of operational plans to the existing ones we are taking care of these
9:01 am
plans and developing that in the coming year does he decide on cutting them out of course at the political leaders but these plans have to be on the table ready on practice. for a force that has more now from western. i don't think it should be read this early as an immediate threat of an imminent attack on iran but it is very much a setting out of israel's position that it should be maintained in terms of a hard line against iran and against iran's potential for getting a nuclear weapon not just from here but also from the united states and this is a real sign of the chief foreign policy concern really of israel at the moment very very sharp difference between a trump administration which aligned itself so closely to israel's policy objectives and interests and it suspicion of the incoming by did ministration what iran has permanent representative to the u.n. has responded by calling on the security council to fulfill its responsibilities
9:02 am
also tomorrow has more from tehran. we're going to be hearing from the president hassan rouhani during his scheduled weekly cabinet meeting later on wednesday morning and he's likely to respond with the same kind of rhetoric and hearing probably iranian officials and that is that any kind of attack or hostility towards iran will be responded with similar measures. crystals here and military officials have said over the house he leaks that iran is ready willing and able to defend itself against all enemies at courses nuclear deal we heard from the ring foreign minister mohammad javad zarif who was in moscow on tuesday he tweeted saying that there is no reason for iran to show good will to return to the nuclear deal of other people to return to full compliance he said why should iran do anything further is the united states who looks drew from the deal
9:03 am
they are the ones that have to take the next steps and that iran will respond in terms of israel's part in all of this of course iran sees them as using this opportunity to pressure new administration to getting what they want but they've said there is absolutely no room for renegotiating or mending this nuclear deal it stands as is and iran will wait and see what the united states will do in the coming weeks and fashion has more now from washington d.c. . well it's clear that the biden ministration has no intentions of being dragged into a fright with one of its closest allies in the days of the administration a senior administration official telling al-jazeera that they have said for a long time that they will consult with allies and partners in the region when it comes to deciding how to go forward with iran we know that joe biden throughout the election campaign said he would like to renegotiate the iran nuclear deal and he believed that a better deal could be reached and certainly could cover contentious issues such as ballistic missile testing but of course he doesn't have
9:04 am
a great deal of support from the other partners who negotiated the deal global corona virus infections and now topped 100000000 scientists believe the real number is likely to be much higher due to learn levels of testing earlier and 2020 and more than 800000 people in the u.k. have now died from cope with 19 is the highest death toll in europe britain's recorded around 3600000 infections u.s. senators have been sworn in as jurors in donald trump's 2nd impeachment trial he's accused of inciting supporters to riot at the capitol building on january 6th and the indian government supplied more security personnel to new delhi a day after thousands of protesting farmers for street battles with police on tuesday they briefly stormed a monument and convoys of trucks broke through security barricades there is mounting anger against laws meant to liberalize the agriculture sector those are the headlines the news continues on al-jazeera after witness statement that's watching by fire. org.
9:05 am
your police headquarters with you also are detected talking about her as you're going to ensure you leave that up i just stand here 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
9:06 am
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 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 the problem. all of this is that there are
9:07 am
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 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 we took about 2 and a half now maybe 3 years ago now and she was accused and
9:08 am
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 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 kareem and i went to my landlord's house we were going to rob her the robbery goes bad and karim stabs her 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
9:09 am
google searches on the players' names and 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. 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 kareem walker was in florida at the time of our crime my partner looked into it and kareem was in florida at the time of our 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 and the defense been able to put that on her confession would have made no sense but the defense was never told.
9:10 am
our goal is of course to get renee out of prison but it can take a really long time sometimes many years 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 i am her. 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
9:11 am
a wig landed on the floor in the kitchen but that's really the kitchen. he tried to tie louise up with the plastic or he 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 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. 000-0000 why are quite right.
9:12 am
i. 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 confess 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 today it's not one kind of
9:13 am
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 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'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 the woman and they've got delay the confessions trump 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
9:14 am
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 a serious of a case that they know is not true they made the trial basically matcher.
9:15 am
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 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
9:16 am
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 u.n. and it was a code teacher who accuses me 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
9:17 am
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.
9:18 am
by. humans. rachel ferrari and i'm an assistant district attorney in new york county mr thompson. can you tell me why you're here today yes. i'm here person 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. and remember just have to go now just a few moments about. and then. present to me you know i have.
9:19 am
ms as i was being. present in the house and so. i had taken. its hands during play time and playing in her own mind. insular emerge short and. you know for sure if for them that your question or your. so when you say give you pleasure at one time not a central resume. it would have to be. i don't know you know. my memory of it is like it is no dave it is your announces to mend it that's your handwriting and it is just losing it over
9:20 am
briefly because it looks like it's been changed in any way. and that's your signature at the bottom as you read this out here today they'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'm 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 to 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 at the judge's 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
9:21 am
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 stalls 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 own the man it's he's still in fact this awful person a q what dansko was it appointed about him and its function to want to install a c.p.a. 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 city for it to pass says just listen for what to put
9:22 am
in a new ear at which is here in new york i can't for. the for fun see treating its 3 stories up. in 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 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 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
9:23 am
and the authorities to make arrests and make them stick to majors but can they didn't meet 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 over the past time for nearly 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 you get arrested and they got him.
9:24 am
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 had given the 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.
9:25 am
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 help 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 home and 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 right well you know what that sounds
9:26 am
crazy right here thought you were going or confess to a rape and go all 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 them to the lab. 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 randi kaye we're going to do some tests we're going to take blood samples from
9:27 am
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. because you're in a position now where you know that there's going to be a match. they even better tell us about it now or stairs instead of saying something that's natural or it's 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's 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 they're well into those play where. there 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
9:28 am
you ever say to yourself damn why did i tell these live now why do i tell these lies a poem i suddenly really really did not exist in my i really did not exist as i would just heard i just felt going to there probably exist in my world this just for the hurt that i had i says something i've formed with the model of the wood with the model of the my it was a it was a room but just to go home or yes my way normally. i was worried that it was going to be true or it was one of which were it all. so this is somebody who are. it's america's worst kept secret cracked open in the time of a pandemic exposed in the time of trump through the turmoil of 2020 the big picture traces a century of racial injustice to reveal how philanthropy politics and economics

and promote sustainable development. hello i'm down zone in doha with the top stories here on al-jazeera israel's most senior manager commodities reveal the development of new offensive plans against iran left and general aviva javi says he's open his forces to step up preparations for possible military action in the coming year is also a u.s. president joe biden to step back from any return for the 2015 nuclear deal. i had instructed the army to prepare a number of operational plans to the existing ones we are taking care of these
9:31 am
plants and the people that are coming there are those who decide on carrying them out of course or the political leaders but these plans have to be on the table ready on practice for a force that has more from west to recent i don't think it should be read history as an immediate threat of an imminent attack on iran but it is very much a setting out of israel's position that it should be maintained in terms of us. against iran and against iran's potential for getting a nuclear weapon not just from here but also from the united states and this is a real sign as the chief foreign policy concern really israel at the moment very very sharp difference between the trunk administration which aligned itself so closely to israel's policy objectives and interests and it suspicion of the incoming by did ministrations global coronavirus and factions are now topped $100000000.00 scientists believe the real number is likely to be much higher due to

9:33 am
respect to right. 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
9:34 am
they sort of knew there were days 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 there and 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 is that their image was getting tarnished you know so became very little right. when taking on a case like renee is the danger is always the case of events rather crimes you know evidence has not been preserved. if there's no crime scene evidence. circus evidence. then there's nothing to d.n.a. test and if there's no d.n.a. to test it's extremely hard to prove that your client is innocent.
9:35 am
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 who worked.
9:36 am
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 makes. you. all are all. punk. we aren't i hope so please please pick as his or 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
9:37 am
a huge help to us ok i'm very much thank you sorry. but i know why if you're making i have no practical ok. oh. ok. do you mind if i said there. is only thing. good that's ok do you know read on your. own history before you got 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 go make sure they do
9:38 am
sometimes it was a bloody crime so now we know i was my d.n.a. so these are all somebody else. to be right how. 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. all chris thank you so much.
9:39 am
we need to ask the most and the most important thing to me you know 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 you know thank you we really appreciate it. ok so that's good that's helpful.
9:40 am
9:41 am
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 why i'm a shoe print expert and your shoe matches the print at the crime scene was untrue. but. you feel.
9:42 am
in the united states police a permitted to lie about evidence. and tell you right now this afternoon we have something. on the 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 it's shaping process and the mother already is believing it we're still going to see both of you they're not right to say whatever it is it is it. rather that the real issues that you are showing that you are in that are the same breath that you
9:43 am
get out you mean to 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 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
9:44 am
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 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 if you don't write ridge goes to 0
9:45 am
part of the trade she's. 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 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 you made that up. i just stand here watch your cry for 5 minutes you wait then tough you know. you're your mom 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
9:46 am
people in jail. you really need to madiba talk now or say goodbye to your mom it's a pretty clear and your cousin and your sister and your girlfriend and your life. if you read into any longer. you ready. room. what can an innocent person do next solve the situation anything i guess you could hold out right forever just hold out. doesn't everybody have a breaking point so why must.
9:47 am
