Attorneys for Shawn Whigham, the man charged with murder in the death of 73-year-old Colleen Potts, are asking for admissions made by their client during an interrogation to be thrown out.
The defense claims Whigham’s rights were violated during the interrogation and that what he said to investigators was coerced.
“The argument in this case is that the officers, the detectives involved in this initial interrogation should have advised the defendant of his Miranda rights long before he was actually advised of those rights,” Nichols said.
