HILL, J.
This is a case of a man (James Joseph Allen) who, almost two years after a burglary had been committed, went to the police station and made a full and detailed confession. The officer then wrote out the confession, and the man, after reading it to the officer, signed it willingly. (Investigation showed a close correlation between the confession and the report of the burglary in the police records.)
This would seem to set a record for voluntariness...
