    Behind the Badge: The Art and Psychology of Police Interrogation


    A police interrogation is a formal questioning of a suspect by law enforcement to obtain evidence that could lead to a prosecution. Interrogations can occur in many settings, including police stations or on the street, and can take place during an arrest, criminal investigation, or after a suspect is in custody.





    Police interrogations are often accusatorial and manipulative, and can include:











    • Confronting the suspect with accusations of guilt
    • Minimizing the severity of the crime
    Providing moral justification for the suspect's actions

    Using the Reid technique, which involves methods to detect signs of deception in body language

    Threatening consequences

    Promising leniency in return for a confession

    Denying the suspect their rights


    The Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution protects individuals from self-incrimination and guarantees the right to remain silent. Before questioning, the suspect must be warned of their rights, including:






    The right to remain silent
    The right to have an attorney present, either retained or appointed
    The fact that any statement they make may be used as evidence against them


    However, the Supreme Court has stated that police interrogations are "inherently coercive". Despite this, confessions are often trusted and offered as conclusive evidence of guilt, even when made by innocent suspects.

    True crime is a genre that explores real-life crimes, often focusing on high-profile cases, unsolved mysteries, or the psychology of criminals and victims. It includes detailed accounts of events, investigations, trials, and their aftermath, providing insights into the human behaviors and societal issues surrounding crime.

    True crime content can take many forms, including books, documentaries, podcasts, TV shows, and films. Popular topics include murder cases, serial killers, organized crime, fraud, and corruption. The genre appeals to people who are fascinated by human psychology, justice, and the complexities of criminal behavior.

    A true crime podcast is an audio series that explores real-life crimes, often detailing the events surrounding a case, the investigation process, the legal proceedings, and the stories of those involved. These podcasts often mix storytelling, analysis, and interviews to give listeners an immersive look into the world of crime and justice.True crime podcasts cover a wide range of topics, including:
    • Murder and Serial Killers: Deep dives into notorious cases or unsolved mysteries.
    • White-Collar Crimes: Fraud, scams, and corporate corruption.
    • Cold Cases: Crimes that remain unsolved, often sparking new interest or investigation.
    • Wrongful Convictions: Stories of justice gone wrong, including false confessions or systemic flaws.
    • Criminal Psychology: The motivations, behaviors, and backgrounds of criminals.
    They range from serious, investigative journalism to more casual storytelling with humor or commentary. Some popular examples include Serial, My Favorite Murder, Criminal, and Sword and Scale.

  • Anissa Weier | Slender Man Stabbing | *Disturbing Full Police Interrogation

    Anissa Weier | Slender Man Stabbing | *Disturbing Full Police Interrogation

    The Slender Man (also spelled Slenderman) is a fictional supernatural character that originated as a creepypasta Internet meme created by Something Awful forum user Eric Knudsen (also known as "Victor Surge") in 2009. He is depicted as a thin, unnaturally tall humanoid with a featureless head and face, wearing a black suit.

    Stories of the Slender Man commonly feature him stalking, abducting or traumatizing people, particularly children. The Slender Man is not confined to a single narrative but appears in many disparate works of fiction, typically composed online.

    On May 31, 2014, two 12-year-old girls in Waukesha, Wisconsin held down and stabbed a 12-year-old classmate 19 times. When questioned later by authorities, they reportedly claimed that they wished to commit a murder as a first step to becoming proxies for the Slender Man, having read about it online. They also stated that they were afraid that Slender Man would kill their families if they did not commit the murder. After the perpetrators left the scene, the victim crawled out of the woods to a roadway. A passing cyclist alerted authorities, and the victim survived the attack. Both attackers have been diagnosed with mental illnesses but have also been charged as adults and are each facing up to 65 years in prison. One of the girls reportedly said Slender Man watches her, can read minds, and could teleport.

    Experts testified in court that she also said she conversed with Lord Voldemort and one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

    Milwaukee teen Anissa Weier was sentenced to 25 years in a mental health facility in 2017, for the 2014 stabbing of a classmate. Weier's accomplice in the crime was a friend called Morgan Geyser, who was also a 12-year-old like Weier when they planned and stabbed classmate Payton Leutner in the nearby woods, later telling authorities that the attempted murder was supposed to keep the legend-horror character Slender Man from killing their families.

    Where is Morgan Geyser now?

    At 19, Geyser is still at the unnamed mental hospital where she was sentenced 40 years after she pled guilty to the attempted first-degree murder of Leutner. Geyser had reportedly pled guilty to the crime to avoid prison, but she was ultimately found not guilty on grounds of insanity. Geyser was later diagnosed with schizophrenia, and following her 2017 conviction, her attorneys have argued that she should have been tried in juvenile court as she was 12 at the time of the stabbing.

    On September 11, 2020, her defense team appealed to the Supreme Court, to toss out Geryser's conviction in adult court. This came after Wisconsin’s 2nd District Court of Appeals had denied Geyser's appeal to have her conviction overruled, twice by then. Geyser's attorney Matthew Pinix had claimed at the time that his client should have been charged with attempted second-degree intentional homicide, which would have sent the case to juvenile court.

    Who is Morgan Geyser?

    On May 31, 2014, three pre-teens — Geyser, Weier, and Leutner, woke up from a sleepover to celebrate Geyser's 12th birthday. The girls then went to a local Waukesha park, where Geyser and Weier stabbed Leutner 19 times and left her for dead. The 12-year-old victim however managed to crawl her way out of the woods and was spotted by the side of the road by a passing bicyclist. Leutner survived, but it's been reported that two of the stab words were millimeters from her arteries. Shortly after she was found, cops found Geyser and Weier walking along the roads, claiming they were on their way to live with Slender Man.

    Geyser and Weier were arrested immediately and charged as adults the next day. The girls had confessed to the crime too, claiming they were terrified of Slender Man killing their families if they didn't murder Leutner. The story has become sensational in the years, because of the brutal nature of the crime from such young children. Having become the topic of countless documentary flicks and TV shorts, the Slender Man Stabbing continues to be one of the most notorious incidents.

    During the sentencing hearing, three years after the heinous attack on Leutner, professional opinions on Geyser's mental health and treatment needed were still conflicting. While her defense team tried to move her to an adolescent health facility, Judge Michael Bohren denied it, saying: "What we can't forget is this was an attempted murder."
