How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • explaining a statement that “do[es] not offer any benefit to the defendant in exchange for information” is not an impermissible promise
  • finding defendant did not give statement in reliance on promise that statement would not be admissible in court because defendant made the statement the next day to different police officers after being read his Miranda rights
  • statement by officer that suspect’s confession would not be admissible in court did not constitute a promise
  • confession “merely cumulative of other, overwhelming evidence on the same point”
