Salvadoreño refugee. José Luis is a soldier in the Salvadorian army that flees to the United States where he begins a love affair with a young woman, Mary.

That is a significant variance in range, but no matter how it is evaluated or what numbers are calculated, the fact remains that false confessions are a reality.

A false confession is an “admission plus a post admission narrative of a crime that the confessor did not commit” (Leo, 2009). Research shows that individuals falsely confess to crimes that they have not committed (Drizin & Leo, 2004; Kassin et al., 2010).

However, this pattern of the themes of love dissipate to reveal that these themes are only apparent to the reader who wants them to exist.
