On appeal to the Maine's highest court, the Law Court affirmed an old rule that confessions must be objectively voluntary, even if police commit no misconduct. This rule protects the mentally ill, the handicapped and other vulnerable persons from being convicted by involuntary confessions. Maine case citation is 2000ME55. This is a minority view among the states and a direct contradiction of the United States Supreme Court in Colorado v. Connelly.
