Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Wright County, Christopher Foy, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered without oral argument by Tabor, C.J., and Greer and Buller, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, C.J. (5 pages)
Jesus Hernandez appeals his conviction of attempted murder. Hernandez contends the district court should have suppressed the self-inculpatory statement he made to law enforcement because he was not given a Miranda warning, violating his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. OPINION HOLDS: Finding no basis for suppressing the challenged statement, we affirm.
