How about this as a penance for murder?

I am aware of the seal of confession, however, I was wondering if, in the case of sins that are major crimes, such as murder, the priest could assign confessing to the police as a penance?
 
Hi Firefox,

No, a priest cannot pressure a penitent to break the seal of Confession.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
