1. ““In this case, no rebuttal testimony was offered to the evidence that the appellant’s mental capacity was below average. However, there was absolutely no evidence presented that the appellant’s mental capacity was so low that she could not understand her Miranda rights. The appellant indicated that she understood these rights, and she signed a waiver of rights form. There was testimony that the appellant did not appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, was not offered any reward, and was not threatened or induced to make a statement. The court did not err in receiving the appellant’s confession into evidence at trial.””
