In their publication, Champion magazine, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers have published an article entitled, Defending Unrecorded False Confession Cases, in which the author presents a detailed approach for how defense attorneys should challenge confessions:

"Challenging a confession -- both in motion hearings before a judge and to a jury once a suppression motion has been denied -- is an essential skill for any criminal defense lawyer. Because confessions are powerful evidence that leads courts and juries to convict clients, and because law enforcement invests a lot in obtaining confessions in the most serious cases, every criminal defense lawyer must learn how to best defend these cases."
