How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- finding that failure to give new Miranda warnings did not establish Mosley violation because suspect's conduct indicated that he was aware of his Miranda rights
- 5-hour interval between waiver of Miranda rights and defendant’s statement to law enforcement not unreasonable
- discussion of potential need for an attorney not an invocation of right to silence
- 5-hour interval between waiver of Miranda rights and defendant's statement to law enforcement was reasonable
- re-administration of Miranda warning was not required when there was more than six hours between warning and waiver
- “The nearly five-hour break between the interviews does not of itself invalidate the initial waiver. The significance of this elapsed time must be assessed in view of [defendant’s] knowledge and conduct and other relevant circumstances.”
