No. S-04-747.

697 N.W.2d 273 (2005)

269 Neb. 917

STATE of Nebraska, appellee, v. Decabooter WILLIAMS, appellant.

Supreme Court of Nebraska.

May 27, 2005.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

A. Michael Bianchi, Omaha, for appellant.

Jon Bruning, Attorney General, and James D. Smith, Lincoln, for appellee.

HENDRY, C.J., WRIGHT, CONNOLLY, GERRARD, STEPHAN, McCORMACK, and MILLER-LERMAN, JJ.


CONNOLLY, J.

Decabooter Williams appeals his convictions and sentences for two counts of felony murder. He contends that (1) he did not voluntarily waive his Miranda rights because he was sleep deprived and intoxicated, and therefore his confession should be suppressed; (2) he should have been allowed to use a transcript of a taped statement to refresh a witness' recollection; and (3) the court improperly instructed the jury. We affirm.
