Hoff, and Kelly Anne Burden, of State Appellate Defender's Office, of Chicago, for appellant. Kimberly M. Foxx, State's Attorney, of Chicago for the People. OPINION. ¶ 1 Over a few hours in early October 2012, several individuals engaged in a crime spree through south suburban Dolton. By the end, several people had been robbed at gunpoint, another had been shot at, and one person lay dead in his driveway. On October 10, 2012, police arrested 19-year-old Darrell Leverson after a car crash and brief chase as a suspect in the crime. He was taken to the Dolton Police Department. ¶ 2 Over the next 72 hours, police interrogated Leverson a total of seven times, shuttling him between a holding cell and an interview room. In the first six interviews, Leverson said nothing incriminating. In many of those interviews, however, he unequivocally and repeatedly asked for a lawyer or for a phone call to contact one. For various reasons, none of which were remotely valid, the police refused to allow him access to an attorney and permitted only one phone call over a three-day period. Simply put, short of physical torture, the Dolton police violated Miranda and the fifth amendment in just about every way they are capable of being violated. ¶ 3 As his detention at the police station stretched into the final hour of a third straight day, Leverson agreed to talk with the police. During this seventh interview, he made several inculpatory statements that were later used against him at trial. After asking to read a transcript of the interview during deliberations, a jury convicted Leverson of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, and several armed ... ... ¶ 49 After police arrested Leverson in the early afternoon on October 10, 2012, they took him to the Dolton Police Department. Over the next three days, officers would question him a total of seven times. Until the seventh interrogation, Leverson denied having any role in the crime spree. Videos of those interrogations and transcripts of them were entered into evidence during the motion to suppress Leverson's confession, and they are part of the record on appeal. We take the facts from our review of those videos and transcripts. ... ¶ 44 At 4:45 p.m. on October 10, 2012, police were involved in another high-speed chase, this time with a Jeep. Like the earlier one, the chase ended when the Jeep crashed. Officers responding to the chase saw Leverson running from the area and pursued him to a house on the 14500 block of South Emerald Street, where they arrested him on the front porch. One man, Phillip McNulty, told officers later that he, Eason, Leverson and Flemming were all in the Jeep together. Investigators later found Eason and Flemming's fingerprints inside the jeep, and Leverson's prints on a water bottle inside. ... ¶ 3 As his detention at the police station stretched into the final hour of a third straight day, Leverson agreed to talk with the police. During this seventh interview, he made several inculpatory statements that were later used against him at trial. After asking to read a transcript of the interview during deliberations, a jury convicted Leverson of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, and several armed robberies and other felonies. ¶ 4 On appeal, as in the trial court, Leverson claims his confession was involuntary. https://vertexaisearch.cloud.google.com/grounding-api-redirect/AUZIYQHHdOpm33ppa6EXGIDHyAiWaZMjYg1T-h9NL82pcVOW-Otvl85-Z9l930clVgpcU0bEfV8s1QPLIxMTxm-ORvOp6djNG1xHWDx2bo7GVbwsNsdFfTcFc21TQoJe26V534zC4jc_6cvOUkvxgqN5KqHlkPRyaweq5i4YYrWVJQ_b-asb1y-Ln1w=
