Question presented
Whether Delgado was denied effective assistance of counsel by his counsel’s failure to file a motion to suppress his confession given in response to custodial questioning by Detective Martin, and had counsel explained that this confession was subject to suppression Delgado would have insisted on filing a motion to suppress and would not have pled guilty; Delgado would have been entitled to suppression of his confession based on his Fifth and Sixth Amendment right to counsel and right to remain silent and Miranda v. Arizona.
