Description
Where it appeared in a murder case that shortly after the fatal shooting of a police officer during an attempted holdup of a store the defendant, upon being apprehended by officers on a country road in Maine, immediately and spontaneously admitted the shooting, that he again admitted it and stated the details of the crime at other places in Maine, during an automobile trip with officers back to Massachusetts, and at a police station here, that he conceded a ""more than fair"" manner in which he was treated by all officers, and that his counsel introduced in evidence at the trial a transcript of the statement made at the police station, none of the various statements made by the defendant was rendered inadmissible at the trial under Escobedo v. Illinois, 378 U.S. 478, although he was never advised of his right to remain silent and was not asked if he wanted counsel until after making all the statements. [243-244] No error appeared in denial of a motion by the defendant in a criminal case to be furnished a copy of the minutes of the grand jury which returned the indictment against him. [244-245]
