Cited to Support

May's allegation that the Defendant remained shirtless and in handcuffs throughout his detention, transportation by APD Officer Darren Moore to the Asheville Police Department, and placement in an interview room at the police station. The cited testimony is relied upon to establish the continuous nature of the Defendant's custody, restraint, and isolation during the several hours preceding his interrogation by Detective Judy Romick. May relies upon this testimony to support his claim that the circumstances surrounding his detention—including prolonged restraint, fatigue, exposure while shirtless in air-conditioned environments, and continuous police control—must be considered when evaluating the voluntariness of his statements and the validity of his purported waiver of constitutional rights.
