This is also how police get people to confess to crimes they never committed. Coercion is not a useful tool for seeking the truth.

Who's implying these people are seeking truth? They are seeking a short cut to do what they want. Police just want a closed case, and if they think you did it, you did it. Coercion just makes the amount of time they have to spend on it much less.
