¶1Concurring Opinion

DeBruler, J.

¶2I agree that introduction of appellant’s post-arrest statements, in which he denied knowing the victim, was not prohibited by Doyle v. Ohio, (1976) 426 U.S. 610, 96 S.Ct. 2240, 49 L.Ed.2d 91. I do not believe a consideration of whether these statements were obtained in violation of Miranda v. Arizona, (1966) 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694, is necessary to the disposition of this issue, because appellant does not argue that Mirandarendered his statements inadmissible.
