United States v. Brown
24 F. Cas. 1247 | U.S. Circuit Court for the District of District of Columbia | 1835
said that the United States could not give in evidence what was said while the prisoner was under examination before the justice, if the prisoner made no reply ; for he is not bound to admit or deny what is said by the witnesses.
Mr. Key said he only meant to give evidence of what was said and replied to by the prisoner; and the examination was so confined.
