Generalizing in Interviews and Interrogations

The use of the word "would" within investigative interviews or criminal interrogations is an easy way for a possible suspect to avoid commitment to his or her specific actions. Unfortunately, we are often conditioned to accept this as a denial of a specific act, without realizing it, thereby allowing the individual to slip through the cracks. Our job as competent interviewers is to "fill the cracks" so the guilty individuals don't slip through, and so the innocent individuals are not wrongfully accused of something they didn't do.
