Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Gayle Lee Jones, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

May 2, 19901990 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 67

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals held that the police conduct during a DWI suspect's videotaped sobriety test was not "interrogation" under Miranda and Innis, so the audio statements were admissible despite the appellant's invocation of her Miranda right. The court affirmed the conviction and reversed the Court of Appeals decision.
