Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

1) The Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution affirms the rights, privileges, and immunities of citizenship, including due process and equal protection. 2) The due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment protects against the admission into evidence of involuntary confessions. 3) A statement that is true will always be admissible in court, regardless of whether the accused was coerced into making it. 4) Weeks v. U.S. (1914) was the first case in which the Supreme Court applied the exclusionary rule to the states. 5) Statements that are the product of coercion, either physical or psychological, cannot be used as evidence, not because of their unlikely truth, but because the methods used to extract them offend the underlying principle in the enforcement of criminal law: that ours is accusatorial and not an inquisitorial system.
