Cited to Support

May's allegation that Detective Judy Romick began interrogating the Defendant at approximately 6:20 a.m.; that she provided him a soft drink and advised him of his constitutional rights for the first time; that the Defendant signed a rights-waiver form before questioning commenced; that the Defendant remained shirtless and in handcuffs during the interrogation while Detective Mike Downing sat beside him; and that the interrogation was not recorded. The cited trial testimony is relied upon to establish the circumstances under which the Defendant received Miranda warnings and was questioned by investigators. May relies upon this testimony to support his claim that the warnings were administered only after several hours of continuous custody and prior questioning by law enforcement and that the subsequent interrogation occurred under custodial conditions relevant to the voluntariness and admissibility of his statements.
