Lawyers for a man charged with capital murder in the death of a police officer have asked a judge to throw out statements the defendant made to investigators.
Attorneys for Marco Antonio Perez argue in a court filing that investigators continued to question him even after he asked for a lawyer.Separately, the Mobile County District Attorney’s Office on Friday challenged the participation of the Mobile County Public Defender’s Office.
Perez’s lawyers laid out the timeline of his interrogation, beginning with the defendant agreeing to talk to detectives at 8:06 p.m. After almost an hour, Perez asked for a lawyer, prompting the two detectives to leave the room. “At no time did the Defendant ever initiate further contact with law enforcement subsequent to his clear invocation of right to counsel,” the lawyers wrote. “When an accused has invoked his right to counsel, a waiver of that right cannot be established by showing that he responded to further interrogation initiated by the police.”
