McCall v. State
Court of Criminal Appeals of Alabama
Decided May 27, 1986PublishedCited by 31 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
Larry McCall was convicted for the capital murder of Adam Lilly and sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. We are in full accord with the finding of the trial judge that "the killing of Adam Lilly was a pitiless and totally amoral act committed for the basest of human motives." Our review convinces us that McCall's conviction should be affirmed.

McCall contends that his statements to the police were taken in violation of his constitutional rights and should not have been admitted into evidence.
McCall was arrested on November 2, 1983. He made four statements to the Mobile police.
