JOSEPH WILLIAM MORGAN, A/K/A LESTER CARTER, A/K/A EDWARD JAMES JOHNSON, APPELLANT,
v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, APPELLEE

5th Cir. | 1968-12-02
No. 26211
Before TUTTLE and AINSWORTH, Circuit Judges, and MITCHELL, District Judge.
405 F.2d 497 Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (1968)
Cited by 3 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM:

PER CURIAM:

We conclude that there was ample evidence to corroborate the inculpatory statement made by the accused in this Dyer Act conviction to warrant submission of the case to the jury. Concededly, the Miranda warning was given. We cannot, at this appellate level, consider the appellant’s contention that there should have been an affirmative determination that the accused fully understood the warning before the statement could be used against him. The law does not place any such burden on the government.

The judgment is affirmed.
