Description

Before a confession or inculpatory statement can be introduced in evidence, the State bears a heavy burden of proving affirmatively and beyond a reasonable doubt that it was made freely and voluntarily and not under the influence of fear, duress, intimidation, menace, threats, inducements or promises. C.Cr.P. art. 703; La. R.S. 15:451; State v. Bell, 395 So.2d 805 (La. 1981); State v. Petterway, 403 So.2d 1157 (La. 1981); State v. Franklin, 381 So.2d 826 (La. 1980). When a defendant alleges specific instances of police misconduct in reference to the statement, it is incumbent upon the state to specifically rebut the allegations. State v. Petterway, supra; State v. Dison, 396 So.2d 1254 (La. 1981); State v. Franklin, supra. However, the State need not wait until after the defendant's case in chief to meet the allegations, but may anticipatorily rebut a defendant's allegations of force or coercion. See, e.g., State v. Hills, 354 So.2d 186 (La. 1977). SUPREME COURT OF LOUISIANA
