United States v. Junious Jones
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided July 26, 1972 · Tuttle, Coleman, Clark
462 F.2d 1376; 1972 U.S. App. LEXIS 8216 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

United States v. Junious Jones

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The principal ground of appeal from this conviction of appellant for knowingly possessing articles stolen from the United States mail, 18 U.S.C.A. § 1708, is that incriminating statements made by Jones during his detention should have been stricken as having been improperly obtained by the arresting officers. A careful reading of the record convinces us that the Miranda proceedings were fully carried out and incriminating statements were made both before and after the appellant signed a waiver.

We have carefully considered the other grounds of appeal and find them to be without merit.

The judgment is affirmed.
