re: #345 Obdicut

And I’m asking if that means that the police should not attempt to get a confession in cases where there isn’t circumstantial or physical evidence.

And I’m telling you again that interrogation is not prosecution. Police normally are only allowed to hold people for a limited amount of time before having to charge or release them. If there is no confession during that time, usually 24 hours here in the US - 72 hours with cause, then they must be released.
