The People of the State of New York, Respondent v. Gary White, Appellant

Summary

The Court held that Gary White's post‑Miranda statements were admissible because the brief pre‑Miranda questioning was followed by a sufficiently pronounced break, and the factors set out in People v. Paulman indicated no single continuous chain of events. The Court affirmed the Appellate Division's order, while Judge Pigott dissented, arguing the statements should be suppressed.
