Eighth Circuit: Jerome Emmanuel Davis v. Warden Kent Grandlienard


Habeas, AEDPA, Miranda


As the post-invocation statement admitted at the trial was facially exculpatatory and cumulative, state court did not err in denying Habeas.

Concur in J -- The statement was the only evidence placing the deft at the scene of the crime, but state court could have reasonably read it as harmless error.
