Bradford v. Michigan — Opinion of the Court
“ New York, 324 U.S. 401, 430-431, 65 S.Ct. 781, 89 L.Ed. 1029 (1945) :'Due process does not permit one to be convicted upon his own coerced confession. It should not allow him to be convicted upon a confession wrung from another by coercion. A conviction supported only by such a confession could be not a variation of trial by ordeal.' Admission of Payne's trial testimony was, in my view, a violation of due process as it was cut from the same fabric that produced his original statement. ”
