Sono quelle che vengono rese da un'imputato/indagato, al di fuori dell'interrogatorio a cui lo stesso è sottoposto. Direi "spontaneous statements" e trovo anche riscontri in rete. E' così semplice? Grazie.

Note from asker:
I was just wondering whether this might be the right translation. But aren't voluntary statements the statements by which you self incriminate yourself? Isn't a dichiarazione spontanea something more general, i.e. something that you want to add in order to amend or clarify a point after being questioned by the Prosecutor and/or your Defense Counsel? Thank you for your input in any case. |
