What is the test for admitting that a statement made by defendant Diaz-Reyes was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Diaz-Reyes, 940 F.2d 669 (9th Cir. 1991):
3 If, however, admission of the statement was error, we conclude that it was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. See, e.g., United States v. Bibbero, 749 F.2d 581, 584 (9th Cir. 1984), cert. denied, 471 U.S. 1103 (1985). Contrary to Diaz-Reyes argument on appeal, the evidence against him was extremely strong. See Section IA of this disposition.
