ON APPEAL FROM THE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT
COURT FOR THE EASTERN
DISTRICT OF KENTUCKY
Before: COLE, GIBBONS, and ROGERS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM. Defendant-Appellant Jackie Dale Mullikin appeals his conviction,
challenging the district court’s January 16, 2006 decision denying his motion to suppress.
The district court's decision carefully analyzed Mullikin’s arguments that he was interrogated
in violation of Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966), and that the incriminating statements made
by Mullikin prior to his arrest and during interrogation at the courthouse were obtained in violation
of his Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights as protected by the United States Constitution. We
have carefully reviewed Mullikin’s motion to suppress, the record developed in the district court,
the applicable law, as well as the parties’ briefs, and we agree with the district court’s decision that
there was no Miranda violation and that Mullikin’s Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights were
not violated. We therefore uphold the district court's denial of the motion to suppress for the reasons
stated in its opinion, and AFFIRM the decision.
