- tyingq 7y agoYeah. It's pretty interesting that popular culture like Dateline, 20/20, Forensic Files, etc, never digs into things like "talk to my lawyer", polygraphs or drug dogs. They tow the line of "cooperate with the cops or you're guilty". They regularly position this sort of thing as an admission of guilt.
- raz32dust 7y agoI think pop culture is actually culpable here. It leads to reinforcing lay people's belief in these techniques, and especially in the US with the jury system, kay people tend to have more influence on the punishment.
