Miller v. State

Miller v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided January 26, 1982 · Ferguson, Hendry, Nesbitt
409 So. 2d 109; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 19031 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Miller v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The question of the admissibility in evidence of an extra-judicial confession is for the court to decide, based on all the circumstances of the confession, Palmes v. State, 397 So.2d 648 (Fla. 1981). For purpose of a felony-murder conviction it is irrelevant that appellant was not present at the time of the actual killing. As a perpetrator of the underlying felony, she is a principal in the homicide. Goodwin v. State, 405 So.2d 170 (Fla. 1981).

Affirmed.
