Yes, of course they can be used.
Absolutely, yes, and without question.
Not only can a statement made to a different jurisdiction be used against you, THIS QUESTION can be used against you in ANY jurisdiction. The only statement that CAN'T be used against you in court is statements made to law enforcement while under arrest before you are advised of your rights. Even then, spontaneous statements made when not being questioned can be used against you.

Of course it can. There are these things called TELEPHONES !

You need to ask a lawyer this -- don't believe what you read on Yahoo, especially the wrong anonymous answer that this question just got. (They don't have to tell you that they are cops.)
No. It is sort of like the same thing that a cop has to tell you he is a cop or anything you tell him or show him is inadmissible.
