Really? Are you saying they’d convict me of a crime I didn’t commit because I accidentally confessed to it? There’s still due process and burden of proof.

If you think they can't ruin your life without a conviction, you're a fool.

“If you think they can’t ruin your life without a conviction, you’re a fool.”

I’ll bet you the Duke lacrosse players and Sen. Ted Stevens kept their mouths shut tight. Look what it got them. The truth is, prosecutors can ruin a life under pretty much any circumstances. The odds that they will when I haven’t done anything wrong simply because I spoke freely is miniscule.
