Heading: Micinski's Statement

Text: Appellant sought to suppress a statement he gave to the police on July 15, 1983, on the basis that it was not voluntarily given. The State introduced evidence showing that appellant had twice been read his rights under Miranda v. Arizona (1966), 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694. There was testimony from the investigating officers that appellant listened to this advisement, read it himself, and signed a waiver. In reviewing the voluntariness of a statement, this Court will examine the totality of the circumstances but not reweight the evidence before the trial court. Grassmyer v. State (1981), Ind., 429 N.E.2d 248. We do not find any basis for concluding that the appellant's statements were other than voluntarily and intelligently given.
