The Hunting Of Man: Lies, Damn Lies, And Police Interrogations, Miller W. Shealy Jr.

University of Miami Race & Social Justice Law Review

The job of the police is to stop crime by stopping criminals. It is a real life, deadly cat-and-mouse game where the hunter and the hunted spar for advantage and success. To accomplish its goals, law enforcement can draw from a vast array of technologies, stratagems, and devices. One of the primary weapons in the law enforcement arsenal is deceit.
