No, criminals cant be prosecuted in any direction on that, nor their word taken for granted any less/more than it is now. an honest person can and does lie every once in a while. A criminal could do the same thing. a pathological liar could be telling the truth just as easily as anyone else, because usually criminals tell the truth when their about to have their lifes thrown away.
But it is interesting...
