MR. JUSTICE HARLAN, concurring.

I join in the reversal of the judgment in this case because the Police Chief's testimony, quoted in footnote 10 of the Court's opinion, seems to me to require acceptance of petitioner's claim that his confession was induced through fear of mob violence.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).
