What type of statement incriminates the person who made it?

An inculpatory statement is one that indicates a person’s involvement in a crime or wrongdoing, essentially serving as evidence against them. This type of statement directly points to an individual’s guilt or contribution to criminal activity, making it incriminating. Such statements can include admissions of guilt or details that connect a suspect to a crime, thereby strengthening the prosecution's case.

In contrast, exculpatory statements serve to absolve or exonerate an individual, showing that they are not involved in the wrongdoing. Voluntary statements refer to communications made willingly by an individual, which may or may not be incriminating. The term Miranda pertains to rights that inform a person about their right to silence and legal representation during interrogation, but it does not specifically define the nature of the statements made. Thus, the characteristic of incrimination specifically aligns with inculpatory statements.
