State v. Dressel

OPINION

JOHNSON, Judge.

Robert Paul Dressel, Jr., is charged with several offenses arising from an incident involving his three-year-old daughter. The district court granted Dressel’s motion to suppress statements he made to law enforcement officers after taking a polygraph examination, and the state has challenged the district court’s ruling in this pre-trial appeal. We conclude that the district court erred by suppressing Dres-sel’s post-polygraph statements on the ground that the statements were made in connection with a polygraph examination. Therefore, we reverse and remand.
