It was probably 99% because they didn't want to hear his BS. But he also hadn't be read his rights and officers will often tell a suspect to shutup until they're read their rights. Once a suspect starts talking they may reveal some confession and back in 2018 if they hadn't been read rights yet then the confession couldn't be used in court. Recently this has changed though where officers no longer have to read your rights, its up to a citizen to know them or ask for them to be explained.
