MICHAEL SEAN RODGERS, APPELLANT,
v.
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 1990-04-10
No. 89-1043
Before BASKIN, FERGUSON and COPE, JJ.
559 So. 2d 392 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1990) Negative Treatment
Cited by 8 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

It is settled that “all inferences on a motion to dismiss are to be resolved against the defendant.” State v. Adderly, 411 So. 2d 981, 982 n. 1 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982). That being so, the trial court was entirely correct in denying the motion to dismiss, whether based on the contents of the motion and response thereto, or the trial court’s viewing of the defendant’s actions on the videotape, or both.

Affirmed.

    …llant’s exculpatory statements given after Miranda warnings. We do not view Anderson’s statement that Thomas was unable to verify the names of his friends, as a statement of Thomas’ attempt to invoke a right to remain silent. See Rodriguez v. State, 559 So. 2d 392 (Fla. 5th DCA 1990). Therefore, Anderson’s testimony was admissible. Further, the prosecutor’s comment during closing argument that “[n]o matter how good the State’s case is, defense always wants us to prove something else,” was not so prejudicial…
