Is a defendant entitled to suppress or suppress statements he made to the police during a custodial interrogation?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Gonzalez, G048543 (Cal. App. 2014):
First, defendant argues that the trial court erred by admitting statements he made to the police during a custodial interrogation. Having independently reviewed the record, we conclude defendant intelligently and voluntarily waived his right to remain silent after being advised of his rights under Miranda v. Arizona (1966) 384 U.S. 436 (Miranda). Therefore, the court did not err in denying defendant's motion to suppress his statements.
