Hammack v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1992-06-24

Relies on Lawson v. State · 376 So. 2d 429 - Turner v. State

Decided 1992-06-24

PER CURIAM.

¶1Reversed and remanded for a new trial on the authority of Turner v. State, 376 So.2d 429 (Fla. 1st DCA1979) and Lawson v. State, 251 So.2d 683 (Fla. 3d DCA1971). We also agree with appellant that it was error for the trial court to first suggest, and thereafter, permit, the state’s police witnesses to wear shirts with the word “POLICE” printed thereon, after granting a motion to suppress the state’s use of such a shirt as evidence.
