   2. In public
   3. The suspects home
   4. The interviewers office

   2. Union employees
   3. Government employees
   4. Executives and other high-level employees
3. Jones feels he is getting close to an admission from Smith, an embezzlement suspect. All the following might further secure Smiths cooperation EXCEPT:
   1. Tell Smith, Look, its not like youre Jack the Ripper. This kind of thing happens all the time.
   2. Tell Smith he knows that he wouldnt have borrowed the money if he did not have an urgent need for it.
   3. Say, With the lack of internal controls here, management practically asking for something like this to happen.
   4. Threaten Smith with criminal prosecution
4. A good example of an alternative question is
   1. Why did you borrow the money?
   2. Will you repay the money now or later?
   3. Did you deliberately plan this or did it just happen?
   4. What do you think happened to the money?

1. During the interview process, the interviewer should:
   1. Encourage the subject to speak
   2. Interrupt the subject to clarify the question when the subject is not answering the question that was asked.
   3. Control the interview by allowing the subject to speak only 50 percent of the time.
