People v. Logan

Defendant was convicted of first-degree murder and appealed, arguing that the trial court erred in denying her motion to suppress evidence where she was subjected to a custodial interrogation without Miranda warnings and that she was denied the effective assistance of counsel. The appellate court affirmed, finding that a reasonable person would have believed that they could terminate the encounter at any time and, as a result, the defendant was not in custody (but expressing concerns about the conducting of a “reenactment” involving medical professionals) (KNECHT, concurring and DOHERTY, specially concurring)
