People v. Cleburn

The prosecution has filed this interlocutory appeal pursuant to C.A.R. 4.1 challenging an order of the Fremont County District Court suppressing a rifle and statements made by the defendant to a deputy sheriff. The trial court concluded that the statements had been made during a custodial interrogation without the required reading of Miranda1 warnings and were involuntary. The trial court also ruled that the rifle had been seized after a warrant-less search conducted without the voluntary consent of the defendant. We affirm the trial court’s ruling and remand the case for further proceedings.
