I can’t imagine anyone confessing to a crime they did not commit but it does happen and apparently quite a lot.

If you do not ask for an attorney then big brother’s thugs will ‘interrogate’ you until you break down and simply want the thuggery to end.

The police can be quite devious and apply a lot of pressure when seeking a confession. Sometimes too much. They also threaten people with much worse penalties if they deny their guilt and go to trial rather than confessing.
I would say that I would never confess to something that I didn’t do, but I’m a reasonably intelligent person with some knowledge of my rights, and I’ve never been on the receiving end of police interrogation tactics.
