Explicit Verbal Waiver of Miranda Rights Not Required

The Fourth Department determined that the absence of an express waiver of defendant’s Miranda rights did not require suppression of his statement:

…[D]efendant contends that the evidence at the Huntley hearing demonstrates that he did not waive his Miranda rights, but that he asked the arresting officer “[w]hat’s going on” after the arresting officer read him the Miranda warnings. Contrary to defendant’s contention, the court properly refused to suppress those statements. It is well settled that “an explicit verbal waiver is not required; an implicit waiver may suffice and may be inferred from the circumstances” … . Thus, “[w]here, as here, a defendant has been advised of his Miranda rights and within minutes thereafter willingly answers questions during interrogation, no other indication prior to the commencement of interrogation is necessary to support a conclusion that the defendant implicitly waived those rights’ ” … . People v Jones, 2014 NY Slip Op 06452, 4th Dept 9-26-14
