The rest of us are all discussing the same thing. We might have different opinions on how the situation will play out, but we are on the same topic. Every post you make is like you are answering a conversation on Reddit and don't realize where your posts are going.
Right, for the play out thing - the judge might say - you know I'm not going to accept that statement as a straight out admission of guilt, therefore we're having a trial, and the jury can hear this statement - and they can decide what he meant by it.

Interesting read. I am from the UK, so it totally doesn't actually matter - but I would agree with Scott here.
If the police say: "We think there is child porn on your laptop, please give us the password."
Then the person being interviewed says: "You know whats on there."
... regardless of password, or whatever else, you now know what is on there. They hung themselves.
If they said "No.", sure - no issue. But they didn't.
Guilty!

It reminds me of the movie "Law Abiding Citizen".
The suspect would "confess" to all kind of things but if you actually listened to what he said it wasn't a confession at all.
Not that a movie is real life but still.
