In court, police who are testifying take an oath to tell the truth, just like every one else. There are penalties for perjury.
In interrogations, the Supreme Court has not stopped the police from using deception (this can be anything from false statements of sympathy to build rapport, to using a "good cop, bad cop" routine, to false statements about evidence or about a non-existent confession from an accomplice).

Why can the police lie to a suspect while the suspect may not lie to the police?
Because laws have been passed that make it illegal for a suspect to lie but no laws have been passed that make it illegal for police to lie (UNLESS THEY ARE TESTIFYING UNDER OATH). There isn't a great deal to motivate a legislature to pass a law restricting police to the truth yet there is sufficient motivation to keep criminals from lying to police. If you become a suspect you should keep your mouth shut and consult an attorney. If the attorney happens to lie on your behalf you are indemnified. Even though you can act as your own attorney in court, you cannot lie to police and then claim you were acting as your own attorney when you did it. It's still you that did the lying.
