inducement
n. 1. The promise of some advantage held out by a person in authority in relation to a prosecution to a person suspected of having committed a criminal offence. At common law a confession made after an inducement was inadmissible. It may now render the confession unreliable, and therefore inadmissible, under section 76 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984. 2. See misrepresentation. |
