How later courts describe this case

  • "[A]s a practical matter, a trial judge's inquiry into a defendant's complaints of incompetence of counsel can be only as specific and meaningful as the defendant's complaint."
  • Police did not interrogate defendant, who had asserted his right to counsel, by allowing his girlfriend to speak with him at her request, even though the police knew that there was a good possibility that she was going to try to get him to admit his involvement in a murder.
