Parish Ramon Carter, Petitioner/cross-Respondent v. the People of the State of Colorado, Respondent/cross-Petitioner

Summary

The court affirmed Carter’s convictions, holding that the Miranda advisement reasonably conveyed his right to consult with counsel before and during custodial interrogation. It also held that the trial court acted within its discretion by allowing the jury unrestricted access to the interrogation recording and transcript during deliberations. Justice Hood, joined by Justice Gabriel, dissented as to the Miranda issue, concluding that the warning had to expressly communicate the temporal scope of the right to counsel.
