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.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
