6 Most Effective Interrogation Techniques and Tactics Used By The Police and CIA

6. Reid Technique

This technique is mostly used by the law enforcers in the United States and has 3 phases. First two phases are fact and behavior analysis used to collect information and determine whether the subject is involved with the crime. If the information shows that the person indeed could be involved with the crime, interrogator turns to the third phase called “nine steps of interrogation.” These steps are designed in order to make the subject more comfortable in telling the truth. Although the Reid technique is considered efficient, some voices of concern associate the technique with false confessions.
