This is part one of my chat with Dr. Kyle Scherr, an expert in false confessions and wrongful convictions.The fact that innocent suspects falsely confess to crimes they did not commit (or in some cases did not even happen) is incredibly counterintuitive and a decision that most people find unbelievable. Yet research makes clear and hundreds of exonerations clearly prove that innocent people admit to murders, sexual assaults, and other crimes that they did not commit. Around 12% of all exonerations and almost 30% of DNA exonerations involve an innocent person falsely confessing. How do such unbelievable occurrences happen?

We just wrapped up the case of Saul Contreras so as always it's time to sit down with OMR's resident attorney Michael Leonard to get his thoughts on the case.Saul has spent almost 20 years in prison for a crime he says he did not commit.The victim, Jazmine Contreras, was just 22 months old when she died on Thanksgiving weekend in 2003. That tragedy was compounded when police immediately developed a theory that Saul had inflicted injuries that caused her death and, through alleged threats and other tactics, coerced what Saul says is a false confession.Over the next few episodes Saul talks us through what exactly happened that night.I'd like to thank Jane Lewis and the team from Proclaim Justice for her help in facilitating this interview.Find out more about Proclaim Justice and Saul's case here http://proclaimjustice.org/cases/saul-contreras/To join the OMR Jury and get bonus extras click hereOne Minute Remaining LIVE in Melbourne get your tix now Join the One Minute Remaining Jury via Appl + HERE and get OMR early and ad free for as little as $1.69 a week!Become a Jury member on Patreon and find us on Facebook here.
