Police Oracle - Subscription at source 11/6/2025 News A content analysis of how police in Canada handle the right to silence Purpose: In Canada, police are legally allowed to continue questioning suspects who invoke their right to silence, thereby encouraging the suspects to waive that right. This study aims to examine police responses to suspects’ right to silence invocations, focusing on how they encourage suspects to provide information and cooperate with the investigation. Design/methodology/approach: This paper reviewed 24 archived video recordings (over 100 h) of Canadian police interviews, documenting suspects’ invocations of silence and officers’ responses. A directed content analysis was conducted to code and categorize the police officers’ responses to the suspects’ invocations. Themes were developed from these categories to capture the patterns in the officers’ responses. Findings: Suspects invoked their right to silence often (M = 22.21 per interview; SD = 20.54) and police used a variety of strategies to handle the invocations. While most strategies aligned with findings from previous research, several newly identified strategies also emerged, with 33% of responses using more than one strategy. The most used strategies fell within domains found in previous research, such as confrontation and competition, emotion provocation and collaboration. Novel strategies included minimizing the role of legal counsel’s advice and using dismissive language to downplay silence.
