Appellate Defender Tristan M. Shaffer, of Columbia,
for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy
Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Senior
Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson,
of Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Jeremiah Turner appeals his convictions of four
counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor and one count of
lewd act upon a minor, arguing the trial court erred in finding Turner's
statement to police was voluntary. After a thorough review of the record and
counsel's brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and
State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the
appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.1

APPEAL DISMISSED.

WILLIAMS, THOMAS, and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
