I don't think you appreciate the enormity of a severe attack of "setup" would do to some people.  People have been known to confess to crimes they didn't do inorder to make it go away.  So there is something to fear - a wrongful conviction.

Most people who confess to crimes they didn't commit have issues somewhere.

The following is a simplified rendition of the fallacy: Person A: "No Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge." Person B: "But my uncle Angus likes sugar with his porridge." Person A: "Ah yes, but no true Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge."

It is usually "Angus is no true Scotsman"
So who is the "no true policeman" we were talking about before?
