Description
The defendant was tried upon an information
charging him with the crimes of breaking and
entering a motor vehicle; General Statutes
53-76; and larceny. General Statutes 53-63.
He was convicted by a jury and has appealed
from the judgment on the verdict. From the evidence introduced at the trial
the state claimed to have proved that, in the
early morning hours of December 9, 1967, the
defendant and Richard Franco broke into an
automobile while it was parked, with the doors
locked, on a public street in Stamford and stole
a sum of money which was locked in the glove
compartment of the vehicle. Franco and the
defendant were arrested at approximately 2:54
a.m. on the morning of the alleged crimes. They
were brought immediately to police headquarters,
where a police detective gave both men the warnings
required by Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 86
S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694, after which the
detective talked to each man separately. Franco
and the defendant roomed in a building in Stamford
known as the "Clubmen's Club". Both men consented
to a search of their room at the Clubmen's Club,
and Franco gave the detective a key with which
to enter the building. The detective and others
entered the building and searched the defendant's
room, in which they found about $61 in a wooden
vase under the bed and $307 in the pocket of a
coat belonging to the defendant. All of the items
found were admitted into evidence.
