California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Hinds, 154 Cal.App.3d 222, 201 Cal.Rptr. 104 (Cal. App. 1984):
The trial court's ruling rejecting appellant's Miranda objections was clearly erroneous. Because the facts relating to this issue are uncontradicted, we need not defer to the trial court's finding. (People v. Jimenez (1978) 21 Cal.3d 595, 609, 147 Cal.Rptr. 172, 580 P.2d 672.) As respondent concedes, the record shows several blatant Miranda violations; appellant suggests additional possibilities.
