Inbau recommends the sympathetic pitch that anyone in the same fix "might have done the same thing," that the crime had a "morally acceptable motive." Also helpful: "Condemn the victim." With a rapist, for example, the detective should indignantly exclaim: "Joe, no woman should be on the street alone at night looking as sexy as she did.
