Thanks to the Esquire magazine staffer who recently sent me the May 2011 issue that briefly covers the magazine’s interview with me about why writers’ and others’ confessions about crimes involving drugs and other activities do not automatically translate into prosecutions and convictions.

I answered that an admission of a crime by itself is not sufficient to convict without at least slight corroboration of the crime, and without prosecuting the crime where it took place.

The piece is in the "Answer Fella" column — an inane title for a column — on page 50 of the May Esquire magazine.
