P. v. Tompkins
Defendant and appellant David Scott Tompkins, Jr., seeks reversal of a jury conviction, because he claims the trial court erroneously denied his pretrial motion to exclude statements obtained by police interrogation in violation of his constitutional rights under Miranda v. Arizona (1966) 384 U.S. 436 (Miranda). He also claims ineffective assistance of counsel because his trial attorney did not renew the motion to exclude his incriminating statements during trial when there was testimony suggesting he was handcuffed when questioned.
