“On appeal, a trial court’s findings as to factual determinations and credibility relating to the admissibility of a confession will be upheld unless clearly erroneous. Crawford v. State, 245 Ga. 89 (2) ( 263 SE2d 131 ) (1980). In view of the evidence presented at the Jackson-Denno hearing, . . . the trial court was authorized to find that the intoxication of Strickland did not render him unable to make both a knowledgeable waiver of his constitutional rights and a voluntary confession. See, Fowler v. State, 246 Ga. 256 (3) ( 271 SE2d 168 ) (1980).”
