If a person who is on trial-admits to the crime so he can plea bargain-why is this info not given to the jury?

Specifically-Im speaking of murder. Someone is on trial and during the trial is trying to pleabargain and admits to everything-no plea bargain is reached. Why is the jury not allowed to be told that the person has confessed? A confession should stop the train right there - over and done with.
