>and then they beat and torture and sleep deprive a confession out of the suspect
Horrible, and seemingly unconstitutional:
"No person shall be compelled to testify against himself.
Confession made under compulsion, torture or threat, or after prolonged arrest or detention shall not be admitted in evidence.
No person shall be convicted or punished in cases where the only proof against him is his own confession."[0]
