The Confession Tapes is a 2017 true crime television documentary series that presents six cases of possible false confessions leading to murder convictions of the featured people. In each case, the documentary presents alternate views of how the crime could have taken place and features experts on false confessions, criminal law, miscarriages of justice and psychology. The series, produced and distributed by Netflix, became available to all Netflix subscribers on September 8, 2017. Critics praised the series, likening it to other Netflix true crime documentaries, such as The Keepers and Making a Murderer.

The police immediately finger Wesley Myers for the crime, and after hours of interrogation, extract three confessions from him: one in writing, one on tape, and one in front of a television reporter. Myers denies his guilt at trial and claims his confession was false, but is still found guilty. In 2012, a retrial is ordered after a judge determines Myers' constitutional rights were violated, but fearing another jury trial, Myers pleads guilty to voluntary manslaughter, and is sentenced to time served, thus being freed. Myers continues to maintain his innocence.

| ShortSummary = Catherine Fuller, 49, is brutally raped, robbed and murdered in Washington D.C. in 1984. Investigating detectives immediately suspect gang violence, and connect the murder to the 8th and H Street Crew, which participants in the documentary claim never existed. Casting a wide net, seventeen people are arrested for the crime, and the State's main witness, Clifton Yarborough, names all of them in being present during the attack. Police ignore inconsistencies in Yarborough's story, and also the fact that Yarborough himself has a low IQ and suffers from a learning disability. All seventeen men stand trial at once, which causes a chaotic and divided defense; the defense lawyers turn the men against each other, saying in court that while it's possible some of the accused did it, the alibis of many of the men are solid. The jury finds eight of the accused guilty after months of deliberation - and appeals bring the case all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States. Although the court rejected the appeal in Turner v. United States, the accused still maintain their innocence.

| ShortSummary = On Labor Day in the year 2000, John Lavelle Lynn and Robert Arthur VanAllen, an owner and an employee of an auto salvage yard respectively, are murdered. Out of hundreds of potential witnesses, police eventually question Buddy Woodall, the nephew of one of the slain men. Woodall confesses, not to the murder, but to helping another man, David Wimberly, carry out the murder. The men are tried separately, and Woodall is convicted; but, due to lack of evidence, the case against Wimberly is dropped by the prosecutor. In 2014, the Supreme Court of Georgia upholds Woodall's conviction, despite alleged problems with the trial and conduct of the police. Buddy Woodall continues to maintain his innocence.[1]

| ShortSummary = While on a family outing, Lawrence DeLisle's Ford LTD station wagon is driven off the edge of a pier in Downriver, Michigan with himself, his wife, and all four of his children inside. When the car hits the water, the windshield shatters, allowing DeLisle and his wife to get free. Rescue workers attempt to save the four children, but all four never regain consciousness. DeLisle originally claims that his leg cramped, causing him to lose control of the vehicle, but later confesses during an interrogation his attorney would later liken to hypnosis. While the court rules the confession inadmissible, it is still made available to the media. In the ensuing trial by media, newspapers and television stations comment on the tape without directly reproducing it, which would be against the court order. Despite the confession never being read in court, the jury finds DeLisle guilty for four murders and one attempted murder of his wife on August 1, 1990. Despite exhausting all of his appeals, DeLisle continues to maintain his innocence, blaming the car instead.
