Jeff Is The Culprit
Jeff is the culprit. Since only one person is telling the truth, Bradley is the one that is not lying. Sarah is lying about Bradley being guilty, and Jeff is lying about being innocent. This is the only situation where one person is telling the truth. For instance, if Bradley was the culprit, then both Sarah and Jeff would be telling the truth. If Sarah was the culprit, both Jeff and Bradley would be telling the truth. The situation where Jeff is the culprit is the only one that matches the criteria of one true statement. Therefore, Jeff is the culprit, and Bradley and Sarah are innocent of this

The Assistant public defender explained that the police would be testifying to the events that happened January 2011. When the police arrived they knocked on the door and no one answered so they looked in through the window to see Schenecker laying outside on the back patio. She notes that the police explain the defendant looked as though she had been sleeping for a very long time and that it was a very cool January morning. To cool for her to be sleeping outside in her robe. That investigation quickly turned from a welfare check into a homicide investigation.

    There are many assumptions about how killed and JonBen`et and why. But If I had to pick a guilty party base on the facts of the case I would conclude that the murders would be the Father John and the mother Patricia.

After all questions were asked to the mothers, the prosecutor, John Fogleman, showed the jury many pictures from the crime scene.

    The chapter focuses on the importance of contaminated confessions by expanding on the various reasons behind the possibility as to why a confession might be contaminated, these are identified throughout the text in various explanations as to why confessions can be tampered with: the puzzle of false confessions, contaminated false confessions, law enforcement practices, corroborated and nonpublic facts, denying disclosing facts, recorded false interrogations, and inconsistent facts (Garrett, 2011). In the case of Jeffery Deskovic’s false confession the police officers gave him facts that were explicit to the case and despite the DNA evidence that was pointing to someone else committing the crime, Jeffery was convicted for 16 years. Jeffery sued for his civil rights being violated. The puzzle behind false confessions is that police are suspected of feeding details of a crime to a compliant suspect. The book asked the question “why do innocent people confess in detail to crimes they had not committed” The relational is that if an individual gives the police exactly what they want then that will, in turn, let those being questioned to be able to go home (Garrett, 2011).…
