Canler v. Commonwealth of Kentucky

Logan Circuit Court, by order, suppressed evidence of Jeffery Canlers confession upon the indictment against him for criminal abuse in the first degree. (KRS 508.100). The order upheld the constitutionality of the statute. Two Judges of the Court of Appeals panel reversed the order of Logan Circuit Court and held the confession admissible. The entire panel affirmed the constitutionality of KRS 508.100. We affirm the opinion of the Court of Appeals upon the constitutionality of KRS 508.100 and reverse so much of the majority opinion that would render the defendants confession admissible.
