185      defendant's confession or admission is admissible during trial
186      without the state having to prove the corpus delicti if the
187      court finds in a hearing conducted outside the presence of the
188      jury that the defendant's confession or admission is
189      trustworthy. Before the court admits the defendant's confession
190      or admission, the state must prove by a preponderance of the
191      evidence that there is sufficient corroborating evidence that
192      tends to establish the trustworthiness of the statement by the
193      defendant. Hearsay evidence is admissible during the
194      presentation of evidence at the hearing. In making its
195      determination, the court may consider all relevant corroborating
196      evidence, including the defendant's statements.
