What is the confession statement? A confession and repentance book is a legal document in which a criminal suspect or defendant voluntarily admits his mistakes or crimes, repents seriously, confesses his criminal acts, and is willing to bear corresponding legal responsibilities. As the basis of lenient treatment by the court, this statement has its existence significance. This affidavit was issued by the court. If the defendant signs, it means that he agrees with his crime and accepts the punishment. Generally speaking, after signing this affidavit, the court will be lenient as appropriate. Confession means that the criminal suspect and defendant voluntarily and truthfully confess their crimes, have no objection to the main criminal facts and charges accused by the public prosecution agency, and sign a written statement. Admitting punishment means that the criminal suspect and the defendant have no objection to the type, extent and execution method of the punishment recommended by the procuratorial organ. Whether to actively return stolen goods, refund compensation, actively pay fines and actively compensate the victims' losses is also an important criterion for evaluating the criminal suspects and defendants' recognition and punishment. If a criminal suspect or defendant disagrees with the application of summary procedure or summary procedure, it will not affect the determination of "recognition and punishment".
