“Life is more than a theory, and love of truth butters no bread: old men who have had to struggle along their way, who know the endless bitterness, the grave moral deterioration which follow an empty exchequer, may well be pardoned for an over-wish to see their sons secured from it; hunger, at least, is a reality.” KnowsMenWayWellsMayRealityLife IsWishMoralStruggleSonTheoryEmptyAnd LoveHungerGravesEndlessBreadOld ManBitternessSecuredDeterioration Book:The nemesis of faith: or, The history of Markham Sutherland Source: The nemesis of faith: or, The history of Markham Sutherland
“Convictions following the admission into evidence of confessions which are involuntary, i.e., the product of coercion, either physical or psychological, cannot stand. This is so not because such confessions are unlikely to be true but because the methods used to extract them offend an underlying principle in the enforcement of our criminal law: that ours is an accusatorial, and not an inquisitorial, system - a system in which the State must establish guilt by evidence independently and freely secured, and may not, by coercion, prove its charges against an accused out of his own mouth.” MayStatesLawUsedPrinciplesProductsProveMouthsEvidenceMethodGuiltFollowingConvictionCriminalsPsychologicalBeing TrueConfessionEnforcementAccusedUnlikelyCoercionProve ItAdmissionSecuredInvoluntaryCriminal Law Author:Felix Frankfurter
