Payne v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 2, 1994 · Klein, Pariente, Warner
630 So. 2d 235; 1994 Fla. App. LEXIS 434; 1994 WL 26998 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Payne v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. We conclude that the self-incriminating statements which defendant made freely and voluntarily after being given his Miranda rights were properly admitted in evidence. Colorado v. Spring, 479 U.S. 564, 107 S.Ct. 851, 93 L.Ed.2d 954 (1987). We also conclude that the prosecutor’s comment was not an impermissible comment on defendant’s right to remain silent, but was rather a proper comment on the above-mentioned pretrial statements.

WARNER, KLEIN and PARIENTE, JJ., concur.
