Annotate this CaseAppellant Jaquwn Brewer was convicted of multiple charges in connection with the shooting of two individuals at a nightclub. The issue on appeal to the Supreme Court concerned the admission of Brewer's unredacted audiotaped interrogation by the police. The Court found the admission of Brewer's interrogation was error.

The murder conviction was reversed and the matter remanded for a new trial.
