    What is it called when a cop scares someone into falsely confessing to a crime?

    I swear there is a term for this. For example, a cop is interrogating somebody and scares/threatens them until they confess to committing the crime, even though the didn't.

    Forced Confession (believe it or not that's the term)."A forced confession is a confession obtained by a suspect or a prisoner under means of torture of some kind, or duress."
