RESUMPTION OF QUESTIONING THE NEXT MORNING DID NOT REQUIRE REPEATING THE MIRANDA WARNINGS, EVIDENCE OF A PRIOR UNCHARGED CRIME WAS ADMISSIBLE TO COMPLETE THE NARRATIVE, DEFENDANT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO INTERVIEW A PROSECUTION WITNESS WITHOUT A PROSECUTOR OR DETECTIVE PRESENT (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined the questioning of defendant, without repeating the Miranda warnings, was appropriate. Defendant had not unequivocally invoked his right to remain silent the night before and the questioning continued the next morning. The court noted that the admission of evidence of prior uncharged crime was not error because the evidence completed the narrative. The court further noted that defendant should have been allowed to interview a prosecution witness without the presence of a prosecutor or a detective. The error was deemed harmless however:

The defendant's morning statement was properly admitted at trial. Had the defendant unequivocally and unqualifiedly invoked her right to remain silent the previous evening, the request would have had to be scrupulously honored … , and further interrogation would have had to cease… . Under such circumstances, further inquiry can be made, but only if a significant period of time has passed and the police reiterate the requisite warnings … . However, since the defendant in this case had not unequivocally and unqualifiedly invoked her right to remain silent … and remained in continuous custody in the interim, police and prosecutors were free to resume their questioning of the defendant within a reasonable time, and to do so without repeating the Miranda warnings … . The further questioning at issue here was within a reasonable time under this Court's precedent … . People v Wisdom, 2018 NY Slip Op 05950, Second Dept 8-29-18
