Cops turn to moms to get murder suspects to talk - KansasCity.com
On the run for five days in 2009 after allegedly murdering his uncle in New Lenox Township, Ill., Jason Gonzalez was found by Joliet police asleep in his mother's car when he turned on his cellphone for the first time since the slaying. Gonzalez declined to talk to Will County sheriff's detectives, asking six times for a lawyer, according to his attorneys. So police turned to what in some murder cases is one of the most powerful levers at their disposal - the suspect's mother.
Kimberly Gonzalez was brought into the Joliet interview room, outfitted with video and audio recording equipment, where her son was being questioned. He told her he fatally shot his uncle - her brother Lance Goebel, 48 - then repeated his confession to Will County detectives who handed him a letter from his mother urging him to talk.
