It looks like the courts have sided with keeping an improperly obtained confession out of civil litigation.

No, you misunderstand the case as well. The issue is whether or not the violation of Miranda was itself something that results in a cause of action in a civil lawsuit against the officer. The issue is not whether or not what the plaintiff said was admissable.
