Description
1 Victor Vasquez appeals from an order denying his motion for post-conviction relief under WIS. STAT.§ 974.06(4) (2005-06). Vasquez claims that he should be granted a new trial because the State introduced hearsay statements of a key witness that violated Vasquezs rights under the Confrontation Clause, as defined in Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36 (2004). Vasquez also claims that he was held without an initial appearance for more than forty-eight hours, in violation of County of Riverside v. McLaughlin, 500 U.S. 44 (1991). He states that because his confession was given after the forty-eight hour mark, it was illegally obtained and therefore should be suppressed.
