There are many reasons for false confessions, mental illness, threats, intimidation, there is some excellent research by Professor Garret of Virginia on the subject and the fact that 25% of exonerees have confessed disproves that only an "idiot" would confess. Interrogations can be intense, and some of those innocents that confessed had college degrees. It is a complicated process that Judges and juries fail to grasp, as well as the general public, as evidenced here.
