Description
The state appeals an order which suppresses certain spontaneous, incriminating statements made by Foster while she was being
booked on various related drug charges. Foster was not given Miranda1{/Cite} warnings until after the booking process was
completed. The suppression order was predicated upon Foster's having earlier made similar statements during the execution
of a search warrant at her residence. The trial court found the earlier statements converted the booking process into an interrogation2{/Cite}
and that Miranda warnings were therefore required before the statements could be admitted. We disagree and reverse. As part of the execution of the search warrant, a Detective Bowers searched Foster at the residence and discovered cocaine
in her right front pocket. Foster began crying and asked Bowers not to show it to anyone. Bowers later booked Foster. During
the booking process, Foster asked Bowers how much cocaine had been found in the house. Bowers responded that suspected cocaine
had been found on her person, upstairs over a washing machine area, and in the kitchen. Foster stated she had known about
the cocaine over the washing machine. Bowers asked Foster only the routine booking questions.
