Hines appealed his conviction for first-degree statutory sodomy, arguing the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress statements obtained through alleged coercive police interrogation tactics and by denying his motion to dismiss for a speedy trial violation. The Southern District of Missouri Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment. The court found Hines' statements were voluntary under the totality of the circumstances and that the delay in bringing him to trial was not presumptively prejudicial after accounting for delays caused by Hines.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=187073","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-of-missouri-respondent-v-eric-a-hines-appellant-d37164","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: evidence","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
