Hi,
there is a corpus of German police interrogations, but it focuses on 
immigrants and I'm afraid it's not fully publicly available. I can't 
find a web address either, but perhaps you are interested in contacting 
the author of the book "Polizeivernehmungen von Migranten" (Hee, 2012):

Good luck!
