WASHINGTON In a Supreme Court argument on Wednesday arising from a murder for hire in the Philippines involving a two-man kill team, the justices struggled with how to handle a federal agent's testimony about a confession from one of the defendants implicating the second defendant.The justices have long sought to draw a line that allows juries to hear such testimony while protecting the Sixth Amendment right of the other defendant in a joint trial to be confronted with the witnesses against him.
