Criminal Procedure — Miranda warnings

Jimmy Scales appeals a judgment convicting him of one count of felony murder, with armed robbery as a party to a crime as the predicate offense. He argues that his confession to police should be suppressed because he claims that he did not initiate additional questioning by the police after he asserted his right to a lawyer. He also argues that his confession should be suppressed because the police did not give him Miranda warnings before resuming the interrogation. See Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966). We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
