{"product_id":"kids-cops-and-confessions","title":"Kids, Cops, and Confessions","description":"\u003cp\u003eJuveniles possess less maturity, intelligence, and\u003cbr\u003e\ncompetence than adults, heightening their vulnerability in the justice system.\u003cbr\u003e\nFor this reason, states try juveniles in separate courts and use different\u003cbr\u003e\nsentencing standards than for adults. Yet, when police bring kids in for\u003cbr\u003e\nquestioning, they use the same interrogation tactics they use for adults,\u003cbr\u003e\nincluding trickery, deception, and lying to elicit confessions or to produce\u003cbr\u003e\nincriminating evidence against the defendants.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn Kids, Cops, and Confessions, Barry Feld offers the\u003cbr\u003e\nfirst report of what actually happens when police question juveniles. Drawing\u003cbr\u003e\non remarkable data, Feld analyzes interrogation tapes and transcripts, police\u003cbr\u003e\nreports, juvenile court filings and sentences, and probation and sentencing\u003cbr\u003e\nreports, describing in rich detail what actually happens in the interrogation\u003cbr\u003e\nroom. Contrasting routine interrogation and false confessions enables police,\u003cbr\u003e\nlawyers, and judges to identify interrogations that require enhanced scrutiny,\u003cbr\u003e\nto adopt policies to protect citizens, and to assure reliability and integrity\u003cbr\u003e\nof the justice system. Feld has produced an invaluable look at how the justice\u003cbr\u003e\nsystem really works.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New York University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54222667317592,"sku":"9780814727775","price":66.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780814727775__676559341e1ab.jpg?v=1741160432","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/kids-cops-and-confessions","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
