After surveying more than 80 cases in which a confession was
accepted as evidence in a "Mr. Big" organized crime sting, these
legal experts suggest changes in undercover police practices in
Canada. "Mr. Big" in these cases is a policeman posing as a
criminal kingpin in order to coerce a confession from a suspect,
but this study finds that this ruse is most successful when the
suspect is from a marginalized group. In addition, police officers
sometimes commit criminal offences while undercover--or they fake
criminal behavior during the course of the sting--and the pretend
'interrogations' are not bounded by normal interview standards. On
these grounds, the authors propose that this practice be
drastically curtailed.
