2023See Lee, 175 Wis. 2d at 359-61 .

2023In the absence of countervailing evidence, once the [S]tate has established a prima facie case of waiver of Miranda rights and voluntariness of an in-custody statement, the statement should be admitted into evidence. …. “[T]he general rule is that a prima facie case will be established ‘when the [S]tate has established that [the] 14 No. 2021AP1581-CR defendant has been told or has read all the rights and admonitions required in Miranda, and the defendant indicates he [or she] understands them and is willing to make a statement.’” Lee, 175 Wis. 2d at 359-60 (citation omitted). ¶24 We agree with

Mississippi, 498 U.S. 146 (1990). 23 No. 2013AP1108-CR ¶60 Our holding merely clarifies that a valid Miranda waiver is sufficient for a criminal defendant to waive the right to have counsel present during questioning, and that courts need not presume any waiver is involuntary simply because the defendant is already represented by counsel.

Thus far, however, Wisconsin has squarely aligned itself with the rulings of the United States Supreme Court.

App. 1994). 10 No. 2019AP590-CR ¶27 Further, the circuit court also found that Donahue had been “questioned by law enforcement” prior to his June 15, 2016 interrogation, and therefore had a “basis for understanding the process.” A defendant’s prior experience with law enforcement—and familiarity with Miranda warnings—is a proper factor for a court to consider when determining whether a valid Miranda waiver occurred.

2021According to Delebreau, the Supreme Court’s holding in Montejo “is clear that a defendant is sufficiently apprised of his or her Sixth Amendment right to counsel by the Miranda warnings, and that a valid Miranda waiver effectively waives the Sixth Amendment right to counsel as well as the Fifth Amendment right to counsel.” Delebreau, 362 Wis. 2d 542, ¶48 . ¶24 The defendants in both Montejo and Delebreau were represented by counsel at the time they were administered Miranda warnings and waived their rights.

2020The court reiterated this finding when it denied Donahue’s motion for reconsideration, stating, “I don't see [any cognitive] limitations manifesting themselves in the video.” Consequently, we conclude Schultz supports, rather than undermines, the court’s determination that the State established a prima facie showing that Donahue validly waived his Miranda rights. 6 The only other case Donahue cites in support of his argument that the personal characteristics of a defendant may affect the level of proof necessary for the State to make a prima facie showing of a valid Miranda waiver is State v.
