Booker v. State

Indiana Supreme Court

Decided March 23, 1979No. 578S80PublishedCited by 18 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

HUNTER, Justice.

William Mane Booker and Dickie Durrad Bridges, defendants, were each found guilty, in a trial to the court, without the intervention of a jury, of robbery and felony murder. They jointly appeal their convictions and present three issues for determination:

1. Did the trial court err in overruling the defendants’ motion to suppress evidence resulting from the defendants’ in-custodial interrogation?

2. Was there sufficient evidence to support the trial court’s finding and judgment of guilt?

3. Did the trial court err in overruling the defendants’ objection to a hypothetical question?
