any cop who lied and told him his father was dead should get jailtime
Cops who deliberately lie to get a confession should be punished with the maximum sentence for the crime they were trying to pin on their victim.
I mean, from a technical standpoint there isnโt much of an alternative method of getting a confession outside of lying and manipulation - perhaps torture, but that doesnโt exactly work. But planting memories into someone is just evil. They likely noticed he was mentally unwell and figured he was a good fit to send to the Tyson slaughterhouse to replace the prisoner/migrant worker/drug addict/troubled teen who caught the flu and died.
Literal monsters
We need to organize against these cops. There needs to be protests outside the precinct until they are either arrested or fired. There is literally no justification to keep them employed an 'peage officers โ after something like this.
Stuff like this is why confessions donโt mean shit.
