Scott v. State
We affirm the judgment and sentence because Issue One was not adequately preserved. “[U]nder the corpus delicti rule, the State has the burden of proving, by substantial evidence, that a crime was committed before a defendant’s confession can be admitted in evidence.” Martin v. State, 911 So.2d 821, 822 (Fla. 5th DCA 2005); see Burks v. State, 613 So.2d 441, 443 (Fla.1993).
