TV show description:
A true-crime docuseries, The Interrogation Tapes TV show examines some of the most compelling criminal cases in recent history through the lens of interrogations. Viewers are shown some of the tricks of the trade detectives use to coax confessions from suspects.
As the stories unfold, experts in the science and tactics of interrogations enter this supercharged space, unpacking the dynamic, tense, and vulnerable moments at the heart of each case.
Audiences will gain insights into the special techniques employed by different interrogators, how some use physical space, methods employed when looking for clues, analysis of a suspect’s speech and body language, and how all this can lead to the truth — or a false confession.
Episode #6 — Stranger Than Fiction: The Murder of Angie Dodge
This episode tells the story of a false confession and a determined quest for the truth. After Angie Dodge is murdered, police zero in on 20-year-old Chris Tapp as the suspect. Convinced he was part of the crime, authorities relentlessly interrogate Tapp before he finally confesses. Shockingly, Dodge’s own mother becomes certain of Tapp’s innocence after watching recordings of his interrogation, sparking a years-long search for the truth before police can question the real killer.
First aired: April 29, 2024.
