  • urging defendant to tell the truth does not make statement involuntary
  • police officer's informing accused of the charges against him and informing accused that he could change his mind about his previous request for a lawyer and give a statement if he chose to do so did not constitute interrogation
  • officer’s statement that defendant could “still help [him] self. . . by telling [officers] the truth” did not amount to a promise that defendant would be given a lighter sentence if he told the truth
