State v. Pelletier

Defendant was convicted after jury trial of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and burglary.

He appeals, assigning the following as errors:(1) Overruling defendant’s motion to exclude testimony concerning statements made to the police after he invoked his right to remain silent.(2) Admitting items seized from the motor vehicle several hours after defendant was arrested.(3) Prosecuting defendant as an adult.

There was evidence to support the trial court’s finding that defendant’s statements were voluntary and it is binding on this court. Ball v. Gladden, 250 Or 485, 443 P2d 621 (1958).
