Colorado v. Pleshakov
Annotate this Case
In an interlocutory appeal, the prosecution challenged a district court order that granted defendant Dimitry Pleshakov's motions to suppress evidence and certain statements made to police. The district court concluded that defendant's incriminating statements were the product of an illegal interrogation without the benefit of Miranda warnings. The court suppressed these statements and evidence later obtained from defendant's apartment as fruit of the poisonous tree. Upon review, the Supreme Court concluded that defendant was not subjected to a custodial interrogation at the time he made the statements at issue, and accordingly reversed the district court's order.
