1999“Rather, the fact of intoxication goes to the weight and credibility to be accorded the statement.” Loazia, 829 S.W.2d at 566 ; State v. Gullett, 606 S.W.2d 796, 807 (Mo.App.1980); see also State v. Heather, 498 S.W.2d 300, 304 (Mo.App.1973)(“Intox-ication is a factor to be considered, but is not determinative of the voluntariness of waiver of rights issues.”) Here, the testimony at the suppression hearing revealed that Defendant was read his Miranda rights at least twice while he was at the Jiffy Mart.

1975Intoxication, though a factor to be considered, is not determinative “of the voluntariness of waiver of rights issues.” State v. Heather, 498 S.W.2d 300, 304 (Mo.App.1973).

Difatta-Wheaton v. Dolphin Capital Corp.green
mo · 2008 · cited in 1 Missouri opinions naming this issue, 2011–2011
2 sentences

2011In Difattar-Wheaton, the claimant appealed the Commission’s denial of her claim for unemployment benefits on the grounds that she left work voluntarily under the terms of section 288.050.1(1) when she failed to return to work after an authorized leave due to serious health complications associated with ovarian cancer. 271 S.W.3d at 595-96 .

2011We find that the Missouri Supreme Court’s voluntariness analysis in Difatta-Wheaton v. Dolphin Capital Corp., 271 S.W.3d 594, 595 (Mo. banc 2008), is controlling.

1975In State v. Smith, 342 S.W.2d 940, 941 [3] (Mo.1961) our Supreme Court held that the fact that a defendant was “more or less” intoxicated when he confessed did not render the confession inadmissible if he had sufficient mental capacity to know what he was saying.

Miranda v. Arizona green

2 sentences

2013However, the State “does not need to show that a waiver of Miranda rights was express.” Id. “[WJaivers can be established even absent formal or express statements of waiver....” Id. 6 Nevertheless, the language in the circuit court’s suppression order suggests that it improperly based its decision on the absence of an express waiver.

2013Pennington did not challenge the voluntariness of his waiver and, thus, the only issue before the circuit court was whether he made his uncoerced statements knowingly and intelligently. 5 Although there may be proof that the accused made an uncoerced statement after a Miranda warning was given, “this showing, standing alone, is insufficient to demonstrate ‘a valid waiver’ of Miranda rights.” Berghuis, 130 S.Ct. at 2261 (quoting Miranda, 384 U.S. at 475 , 86 5.Ct. 1602).
