​BREAKING POINT

​What compels innocent people to admit to crimes they did not commit? This book investigates law enforcement overreach in the criminal justice system, bringing readers inside the interrogation room to witness how these confessions unfold. Through portraits and interview excerpts from six exonerees—each of whom falsely confessed and was wrongfully imprisoned—it reveals how coercive interrogation tactics can push innocent people to a breaking point.

Praise for Breaking Point:

 

"Breaking Point is both a compelling photobook and a powerful act of witness, reminding us that justice depends not only on uncovering the truth after the fact, but on understanding the conditions under which truth can be distorted in the first place."
