          Abstract

          Resumen La información disponible indica que el uso de confesiones falsas es uno de los factores que aumentaría el riesgo de producir condenas e imputaciones erróneas. Este artículo busca servir como aproximación al problema en Chile mediante una revisión de sentencias de la Corte Suprema que se pronuncian sobre algunos aspectos de la declaración del imputado de conformidad con el artículo 91 del Código Procesal Penal chileno. El objetivo es obtener información de algunas prácticas policiales y criterios jurisprudenciales para luego, en base a los hallazgos, presentar algunas reflexiones insertas en el contexto del problema de las condenas e imputaciones erróneas.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract The available information indicates that using false confessions is one of the factors that would increase the risk of producing wrongful convictions and prosecutions. This article seeks to approach the issue in Chile by reviewing Supreme Court rulings on some aspects of the defendant’s statements under Article 91 of the Chilean Code of Criminal Procedure. The aim is to obtain information on some police practices and Supreme Court’s criteria. Thus, based on the findings, the article presents several thoughts regarding the problem of wrongful convictions and prosecutions.

          Police-induced confessions: risk factors and recommendations.

          Recent DNA exonerations have shed light on the problem that people sometimes confess to crimes they did not commit. Drawing on police practices, laws concerning the admissibility of confession evidence, core principles of psychology, and forensic studies involving multiple methodologies, this White Paper summarizes what is known about police-induced confessions. In this review, we identify suspect characteristics (e.g., adolescence; intellectual disability; mental illness; and certain personality traits), interrogation tactics (e.g., excessive interrogation time; presentations of false evidence; and minimization), and the phenomenology of innocence (e.g., the tendency to waive Miranda rights) that influence confessions as well as their effects on judges and juries. This article concludes with a strong recommendation for the mandatory electronic recording of interrogations and considers other possibilities for the reform of interrogation practices and the protection of vulnerable suspect populations.

              ENJUICIANDO Al PROCESO PENAL CHILENO DESDE EL INOCENTRISMO (ALGUNOS APUNTES SOBRE LA NECESIDAD DE TOMARSE EN SERIO A LOS INOCENTES)

              Pretender que nunca se condene a un imputado fácticamente inocente es una tarea que ningún proceso penal se propondría alcanzar, aquello es imposible. Los sistemas penales condenan gente inocente y el inocentrismo se ha encargado, en algunos países más que en otros, de demostrarlo. El presente trabajo se propone, a la luz de la información empírica y teórica que ha surgido desde el movimiento inocentrista, analizar críticamente nuestro proceso penal para llamar la atención sobre su vulnerabilidad para prevenirlas. Junto a ello, el texto sugiere varias modificaciones en distintos ámbitos del tratamiento de la evidencia y propone revisar la adversarialidad del modelo que, por su insuficiente regulación, hoy resulta un problema más que una solución al objetivo de reducir las condenas a imputados fácticamente inocentes.
