United States v. Lopez, No. 04-1223, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT, February 21, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: The district court did not err in suppressing a defendant's murder confession as a product of coercion where federal agents promised the defendant that he would spend six rather than 60 years in prison if he admitted to killing the victim by mistake, and the agents misrepresented the strength of the evidence they had against the defendant.
