341 So.2d 742 (1976)

In re Samuel CAMPBELL v. STATE of Alabama. Ex parte STATE of Alabama ex rel. ATTORNEY GENERAL.

Supreme Court of Alabama.

Rehearing Denied February 4, 1977.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William J. Baxley, Atty. Gen., and G. Daniel Evans, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State of Ala.

David L. Barnett, Mobile, for respondent.


BEATTY, Justice.

We provisionally granted the State's petition for a writ of certiorari to consider that aspect of the opinion of the Court of Criminal Appeals dealing with the requirement of voluntariness of an inculpatory statement used to impeach. That opinion prohibits the introduction into evidence of such a statement made by an accused during an in-custody interrogation "unless the predicate of trustworthiness or voluntariness is established."
