"these so-called inducements were actually conditions originated
and tendered by the defendant in return for which he was willing
to give a truthful statement," concluded the defendant's confes-
sion was entirely voluntary, and the appellate court in Wright
affirmed. Wright, 127 Ill. App. 3d at 752, 469 N.E.2d at 354.
Applying these principles to the present case, the
trial court's finding of voluntariness is not to be against the
manifest weight of the evidence. See Oaks, 169 Ill. 2d at 447,
662 N.E.2d at 1344 (standard of review is whether finding of
voluntariness is contrary to the manifest weight of the evi-
dence).

You see it is not standard procedure for prosecutors/detectives to bargain the death penalty. Apparently the accused can bring it up though.
