PEOPLE v. STEWART

No. 162497.

999 N.W.2d 717 (2023)

512 Mich. 472

PEOPLE of the State of Michigan, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Joshua Lamar-James STEWART, Defendant-Appellant.

Supreme Court of Michigan.

Decided July 31, 2023.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Dana Nessel, Attorney General, Fadwa A. Hammoud, Solicitor General, Kym L. Worthy, Prosecuting Attorney, Jon P. Wojtala, Chief of Research, Training and Appeals, and Timothy A. Baughman, Special Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for the people.

State Appellate Defender (by Marilena David) for defendant.

BEFORE THE ENTIRE BENCH.

OPINION

At issue in this case is whether defendant's statements to law enforcement, made during an early-hours interrogation, were voluntary. Considering the totality of the circumstances, we conclude that defendant's statements were involuntary and that the trial court erred by failing to suppress them.
