/kəˈɜrst kənˈfɛʃən/ – Phrase
Definition: việc bị ép buộc nhận tội.
A more thorough explanation: A coerced confession refers to a statement made by an individual admitting to a crime or wrongdoing under duress, pressure, or force. This can include physical or psychological coercion, threats, or promises that induce the individual to confess against their will. In legal terms, a coerced confession is generally considered involuntary and may be inadmissible as evidence in court due to concerns about its reliability and the violation of the individual’s constitutional rights.
Example: The defendant argued that his guilty plea was a result of a coerced confession and should therefore be deemed inadmissible in court.
