...rights and Benjamin Cardozo's words: "Justice, though due the accused, is due the accuser also." Don't abandon "totality of circumstances" in judging whether confessions are free or coerced. Don't assume that "focus" is workable as an objective test. Don't expect judges to reconstruct just when the focus point was reached or whether the suspect really waived his rights when he talked.

"I know you have got the grill," he began, "and I'm the hamburger, freshly ground yesterday and ready to be cooked today." He met the opposition head on, detailed OEO's considerable accomplishments, and expressed his own impatience with not being able to do more faster. He likened the poor to labor-union members, who must sometimes settle for less than their full demands. "The American society can't afford wildcat strikes...
