In what circumstances will the courts consider whether interrogation techniques violate due process?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Nieves, 2d Crim. No. B268349 (Cal. App. 2017):
In evaluating whether interrogation techniques violate due process, the courts should consider the totality of the circumstances to determine whether a suspect's will was overborne. A due process violation occurs only where law enforcement subterfuge was likely to have produced false statements or a coerced confession. (Colorado v. Connelly (1986)
