Abstract
When suspects lie in police interrogations, it is the job of investigators to identify those lies. However, increased concerns around confrontational interrogation tactics means that investigators also need to be mindful of anything done that could be seen as coercive. This chapter explores more subtle attempts of tagging deception, namely through the conversational strategy of disbelief repeats. Using conversation analysis on actual interrogations, the chapter identifies how disbelief repeats shape suspect responses through a less aggressive, but nevertheless impactful approach. The chapter emphasizes the need for scholars and professionals who deal with deception to examine it not only as a psychological state, but also as a communicative interaction. We examine how responses to perceived deception are employed by interrogators and how they can impact and shape suspect responses.
