- Faked Kidnapping: The woman buried alive and her lover faked her abduction to get her husband to pay a large ransom that they were planning on using to run away together.
- False Confession: A man admits to a crime he didn't commit.
- Taking the Heat: The elderly man who confessed to the hit-and-run did so in an attempt to keep his teenage grandson from going to jail.
