A police detective obtained a confession from the defendant during a murder trial of the first officer of the American ship Herbert Fuller. The confession is being evaluated to determine whether it was voluntary and made without coercion or intimidation. The admissibility of the confession relies on whether it was obtained through legal channels. The defendant's objections to the indictment and questions posed to expert and medical witnesses were overruled. The lower court's decision was reversed, and a new trial was ordered.
