Match the court case with the correct ruling with regards to the voluntariness of confessions.
 
  Column 1:
  Chambers v. Florida
  Ashcraft v. Tennessee
  Payne v. Arkansas
   Frazier v. Cupp
 
  Column 2:
  the suspect was questioned for
  38 hours with only one
  5-minute break so the confession was deemed involuntary
  confessions of murder procured by repeated inquisitions of prisoners without friends or counselors present, and under circumstances to inspire terror, held compulsory
  the Supreme Court held that a police officers false statement that a co-defendant
  implicated the accused was
  not sufficient to produce an
  involuntary statement
  a mentally challenged
  19-year-old was held incommunicado for three days without counsel and given little food. His resulting confession was deemed involuntary

Question 2

An advantage to double -blind lineups is that they are not resource intensive.
 
  Indicate whether this statement is true or false.

Question 3

As a good practice for police investigators, they should always try and obtain a statement from the witness confirming his or her identify of a suspect.
 
  Indicate whether this statement is true or false.
