- Miner49er 5y agoResearch shows that children are especially susceptible to being lied to in interrogations. I imagine limiting the ban to minors was a compromise from negotiating with police and attorney organizations and pro-police lawmakers.
- emteycz 5y agoWhat's the purpose of your question? It's apparent they went out of their way to limit this to minors - so the reason is they want to have the ability to lie to adults. Probably 'because it helps fight crime' or something.
