Answer:

The judge ruled that Violet's confession is inadmissible, because her confession was forced and involuntary.

Explanation:

A confession is a formal statement a person makes voluntarily, admitting he or she is guilty of committing a crime.

<em>The 14th amendment of the US Constitution states that the police must only obtain voluntary confessions and must not force, intimidate or coerce a suspect to confess to a crime.</em>

<em>In such a case where a suspect is forced to confess, then such confession will be inadmissible in court.</em>

Therefore <u>the judge ruled Violent Violet's confession as inadmissible, because </u><u>she was forced</u><u> by the police to confess, and as such, </u><u>her confession was involuntary</u><u>.</u>
