Jimmie L. Bowen v. Ricky D. Dixon, Secretary, Florida Department of Corrections

Whether, under Rhode Island v. Innis and J.D.B. v. North Carolina, a detective’s act of placing a juvenile suspect in an interview room with a juvenile co-suspect while secretly monitoring and recording the conversation, in order to obtain a confession after the juvenile has invoked his Miranda rights, violates the Fifth Amendment. Whether, under 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d), and in light of J.D.B. v. North Carolina, a State adjudication of a claim results in a decision that is contrary to, or an unreasonable application of, clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States, when it fails to adequately consider a suspect’s status as a juvenile, for Fifth Amendment purposes.
