State of Connecticut v. Everton Gardner

Summary

The court affirmed the defendant's convictions, upholding the admission of his hospital statement and rejecting his two unpreserved evidentiary claims. It adopted the trial court's reasoning that the defendant knowingly and voluntarily waived his rights and gave the statement, held that the uncharged-misconduct claim was not constitutional in nature, and found the search-and-seizure claim unreviewable because the record was inadequate. No separate opinions were issued.
