Task: Admissions Obtained in Violation of Sixth
Amendment
Kansas v. Ventris, 556 U.S. 586 (2009).
In a case where law enforcement obtains admissions from a
defendant in violation of the Sixth Amendment, the admissions may
be used for impeachment purposes as the exclusionary rule does
not apply to these statements for impeachment purposes.
