Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Benham, Judge.

This appeal is from appellant’s conviction of child molestation. The victim was his stepdaughter.

1. In his first enumeration of error, appellant asserts that the trial court erred in admitting the testimony of a caseworker from the Department of Family and Children Services regarding admissions made by appellant during an interview with the caseworker. The ground on which appellant contends the testimony should have been excluded is that appellant was not informed prior to the interview of his rights under Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U. S. 436 (86 SC 1602, 16 LE2d 694) (1966).
