    Not if you made that confession outside of any prosecution process and then withdrew it saying you were just making shit up, I wouldn’t think.

      I would expect that to be true as well.
      For some reason I can’t really explain anymore, I was thinking of a situation where the confession is made, and reiterated at every step in the prosecutorial process, without any other evidence (for or against) being available for the process.
