It can if you have the influence of a named, and highly influential attorney. Remember that the system works only for some.

Not if your Miranda Rights were read prior to making that statement. However, a good attorney might be able to cast some doubt on the statement you made, because it was made while under the influence. Either way, it will be difficult since most people know that you tend to tell more of the truth when your drunk. Good Luck.

If you are in the England and Wales, most certainly it will be - if you can prove you were drunk at the time. Under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act the police must not interview a suspect who is 'under the influence', but must wait until he/she is sober. This does not include brief details taken from a drunk driver during the course of breathalyser procedure, however.
