““.... the law is clear that when a defendant exercises his constitutional right to remain silent, his post arrest silence is not admissible against him [citations omitted], this rationale has no application where the defendant elects to waive that right during his custodial arrest and proceeds to make statements as was done here, [citations omitted]. This is true whether the statements waiving the right are made before or after the expressed desire to remain silent.””
