This is an appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. The appellant seeks reversal of an order granting a writ of habeas corpus.
The district court held that the appellee's confession was involuntary and that the appellee's signature on a confederate's confession was also involuntary.
After a review of the briefs and the record, and a study of the authorities cited by counsel, this court adopts the opinion of the trial court1 insofar as it deals with the question raised by this appeal.
Affirmed.
