MODIFICATION OF OPINION 
THE COURT: 
The opinion herein, appearing at 49 Cal.4th 405, is modified as follows:  
The second sentence of the third full paragraph on page 450 is modified to read 
as follows:  
 
The defense relied upon the circumstances that the officers had threatened 
Williams repeatedly with prosecution for murder, that they warned her she 
would remain in custody and would be unable to see her children until she 
“told the truth,” and that they played upon her religious beliefs. 
 
This modification does not affect the judgment.
