2005 Washington Revised Code RCW 10.58.030: Confession as evidence.

    The confession of a defendant made under inducement, with all the circumstances, may be given as evidence against him, except when made under the influence of fear produced by threats; but a confession made under inducement is not sufficient to warrant a conviction without corroborating testimony.

    [Code 1881 § 1070; 1873 p 234 § 232; 1854 p 117 § 96; RRS § 2151.]
