28-Hours Between Arrest and Arraignment Okay

The Second Department determined a 28-hour delay between arrest and arraignment did not render defendant’s confession involuntary:

Approximately 28 hours elapsed between the time the police arrested the defendant and the time the defendant made the statement sought to be suppressed. While an undue delay in arraignment is properly considered when assessing the voluntariness of a defendant’s confession, a delay in arraignment alone does not warrant suppression, as it is but one factor in assessing the voluntariness of a confession … . The record does not support the defendant’s claim that the police unnecessarily delayed his arraignment. Here, the delay in arraigning the defendant was attributable to the time it took the police to conduct a thorough investigation and not to a strategically designed plan to permit the defendant to be questioned outside the presence of counsel … . People v Lin, 2013 NY Slip Op 02267, 2008-07244, Ind No 1705/05, 2nd Dept 4-3-13

SUPPRESS, SUPPRESSION
