Description
At the murder trial of a defendant who, prior to his arrest, had willingly involved himself with the police investigation of the murder and had had frequent contact with police officials over an extended time, the Judge correctly concluded that the defendant's inculpatory conduct and statements to the police, after being repeatedly advised of his rights, were voluntary in the constitutional sense. [82-90] At a murder trial the Judge did not abuse her discretion by refusing to permit defense counsel to cross-examine the chief prosecution witness concerning an unrelated murder to which the witness had admitted pleading guilty, where it did not appear that the details of that offense could tend to prove the witness's bias against the defendant, and where the defense had elicited numerous other admissions from the witness damaging to her credibility. [90-91]
