Text: 1 Defendant Christopher Lee Rambo was taken into custody because the police received information that he was involved with two armed robberies in Greeley, Colorado. Greeley Police Officer Michael Moran interviewed Rambo and Rambo eventually confessed to his role in the robberies. Rambo was charged with two counts of robbery affecting commerce in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951(a), two counts of using a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c), and one count for being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g). Rambo moved to suppress his confession on the grounds that it had been obtained in violation of his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. The district court denied the motion. Rambo pleaded guilty to the two 18 U.S.C. § 924(c) charges, but under his plea agreement with the government he retained his right to appeal the district court's decision concerning his motion to suppress. See Fed.R.Crim.P. 11(a)(2). This court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Because we conclude the police failed to honor Rambo's request to terminate the interrogation, we reverse and remand.
