How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- explaining that statements that “furnish” some, but not “all[,] facts necessary for conviction” are “admissions, not confessions”
- mere proximity to an alleged burglary is not sufficient corroboration that defendant committed that burglary, even though sufficient evidence corroborated defendant's admissions to having committed other burglaries in the area, thereby proving the corpus delicti of those other burglaries
