Many people can be broken down after being grilled for hours. The evidence against Mr. Cope is utterly pathetic. The only thing that made it even a remotely possible is the letter to Amy, which the defense countered with a plausible excuse. The letter to Amy was the only real evidence they had against him. But in light of everything else, was not enough to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. Not even close. Case after case after case prove coerced confessions happen all the time.
