A quick definition of threshold confession:
A confession is when someone admits to doing something wrong, like a crime. It can be spoken or written. If someone is forced or threatened to confess, it's called a coerced confession. If someone confesses without being asked, it's called a threshold confession. A confession can be used as evidence in court, but it has to be given freely and not because of promises or threats.A more thorough explanation:
A threshold confession is when a criminal suspect confesses to a crime without being interrogated by the police. This type of confession is usually made promptly after the suspect's arrest.
For example, if a suspect is arrested for robbery and immediately confesses to the crime without being questioned by the police, this would be considered a threshold confession.
The issue of whether a confession is a threshold confession often arises when the suspect challenges the admissibility of the confession in court. If the confession was made before any delay occurred, it is usually admissible as evidence.
