- jandrese 3y agoWhy would they need evidence if they have a confession? The cops aren't going to do extra work they don't need to.
- ceejayoz 3y agoA confession may make other evidence easier to get at. If you suspect wrongdoing, but don't have probable cause to search the car/house, and the suspect says "oh yeah I've got a dead body in there", you're potentially about to be in posession of some serious new evidence you didn't have a right to get at previously.
