1Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the Court was delivered by
VERNIERO, J.
We are called on to determine the admissibility of a taped telephone conversation between J.D.H. and the victim of his sexual assault during which J.D.H. incriminated himself. The trial court admitted the conversation. Citing our decision in State v. Presha, 163 N.J. 304, 748 A.2d 1108 (2000), in which we addressed the standards to be used when evaluating statements made by juveniles in police custody, the Appellate Division held that J.D.H.’s statements were inadmissible. We disagree and reverse.
