ing"
Opinion Quoted
Judge Bazelon, speaking for
himself and his three colleagues,
declared that the alleged confess
sion should have been excluded
because appellant con-
fessed as result of be-
ing questioned while held in
plain disregard of the duty
{. upon Federal law officers
promptly to take them before
a judicial officer"
Judge Bazelon's opinion brushed
aside a Government argument
that since Mrs. Rettig had been
arrested on Sunday. the delay
was the result of the police,
under arraignment rules, not
being required to take a suspect
before a committing magistrate
on that day.
mo language in the rule
justif1es an exemption of Sum
day arrests from the require
ment of prompt commitment, "
Judge Bazelon wrote.
The minority opinion was
written by Judge Miller. He
wrote in part that "the confess
sion was not involuntarily given
and so was not excludable on
constitutional grounds" He also
declared that he did not think
the delay in arraignment" and
the events of the day of her
arrest amounted per Sc to
coercion"
The Observation-Disclosures opin-
ion continued: 1T counters our
experience and the teaching of
the cases, to believe that the
police can question such a per-
son, distraught from the circum-
stances, without food, without
rest -. without advice as to
counsel and then obtain in
culpatory admissions free of
faint. :"
Judge Miller continued:
In our zeal to protect the
appellant tMrs. Rettig) under
the McNabb rule of evidence
pertaining to illegal detention A.,
we should not forget that a jury
heard undeniably admissible evil
dence tending to show guilt,
quite apart from the somewhat
equivocal confession, and then
solemnly determined that she
terminated Robert Rettig's right
to life, and so forfeited her own
right to liberty.
I'VE should remember that So
ciety has a stake in this business.
The public has the right to ex-
pect the criminal laws to be
strictly enforced. They should
never be given any reason to
suppose that at times the courts
coddle convicted criminals by
unduly emphasizing their rights
over the wrongs they have done
to the rights of others"
