“a trial judge must engage in a searching inquiry, which [State v.] Crisafi[, 128 N.J. 499, 510-12 , 608 A.2d 317 (1992)] said should include explanation of the nature of the charges, possible defenses, and the range of punishment; the technical problems arising from self-representation, and the risks taken if the defense is unsuccessful; the requirement that the defense be presented in compliance with the rules of criminal procedure and evidence; and the inadvisability of proceeding without assistance of counsel. [Id. at 336, 872 A.2d 1087 .]”
