CONT

Le modèle du «due process», qui aboutit à une règle exclusionnaire, tient la preuve illégalement obtenue pour un facteur aberrant préjudiciable à la respectabilité du système qui autorise le juge à l'écarter de l'instance. Par cette sanction procédurale, le juge garantit les droits des citoyens par le biais de ceux de l'accusé.

Key term(s)
  • preuve obtenue illégalement
