Abstract
This paper examines from a conversation analysis perspective how police officers manage police-suspect exchanges during the ‘argumentation stage’ of police interrogation while using the accuser's police interview as a basis for formulating questions during the ‘preparatory stage’. Analyzing the audio recorded police interrogation of a suspect and the investigative interview of his accuser, this paper shows how the ‘preparatory stage’ of police interrogation plays a key role in constructing the discourse themes of confrontation and self-interest that seem to shape police-suspect exchanges in United States custodial settings. The results of the paper suggest that police officers often use turn-taking and topic management strategies, such as those embedded in the popular Reid method of interrogation, to pressure the suspect into cooperating with the police
