The appeals court affirmed, finding that state statutes governing the sentencing of juvenile defendants did not create an impermissible irrebuttable presumption of an adult sentence for juveniles charged with intentional homicide, and were not unconstitutionally vague. Under Miranda, the Supreme Court established an irrebuttable presumption that a statement is involuntary if it is taken during custodial interrogation without a waiver of the so-called Miranda warnings.
