1. “From the unambiguous language of this statute, this court concludes that sec. 971.31(10), is applicable only in suppression situations. In addition, our supreme court made this clear when it stated: "Under the rule of statutory construction of expres-sio unius est exclusio alterius, this statute stops V7ith the single exception it creates." Foster v. State, 70 Wis. 2d 12, 20 , 233 N.W.2d 411, 415 (1975). Thus, by its express terms, this statute excepts only motions to suppress evidence and motions challenging the admissibility of a defendant's statement. This statute cannot be construed so as to except from the rule of waiver every motion to exclude evidence.”
