Right to counsel not established by desire to speak with mother State v. Demetrius Diaz-Bridges

Right to counsel not established by desire to speak with mother

State v. Demetrius Diaz-Bridges (067065; A-49/50-10)

Because neither defendant’s statements about his

desire to speak with his mother nor any of his other

statements were assertions of his constitutionallyprotected

right to silence, the suppression of any

portion of his confession was in error. 1-12-12
