U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 09-2713
U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska - Omaha
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Smith and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - suppression. Leaving two suspects alone in room and
recording their conversation is not express questioning or the functional
equivalent to police interrogation. District court did not err in denying
motion to suppress. District court did not abuse its discretion in denying
motion for mistrial following prosecutor's closing argument, as even if
prosecutor's comments suggested Swift bore burden to present evidence,
comments were not prejudicial or deprive Swift of fair trial.
