“"repeatedly told defendant that they would be able to disprove any falsehood, that they knew that she was lying, and that she needed to tell the truth and 'be honest now.' The detectives, who had told defendant that they would be able to figure out 'everything' and that 'we know what happened now,' repeatedly asked questions that assumed defendant's guilt."”
