United States Court of Appeals
For the First Circuit
No. 09-1020
TITO ABRANTE,
Petitioner, Appellant,
v.
PETER ST. AMAND,
Superintendent at MCI-Cedar Junction,
Respondent, Appellee.
ERRATA SHEET
The opinion of the court issued on February 3, 2010, is
amended as follows:
Delete the first paragraph of footnote 6 on page 8 of the
opinion. Replace it with the following text:
Abrante's only evidence that police did anything
other than ask Maldonado and Melendez whether Abrante had
already discussed his case with them is the testimony of
defense investigator Philip Kass. Kass testified that he
had two conversations with Maldonado: the first, which
lasted about "five minutes or so," was without an
interpreter. Kass ended that conversation after
Maldonado told him that he would be more comfortable with
an interpreter. According to Kass, in that first
conversation, Maldonado told him that police had told
Maldonado that they could help him with his case if he
would talk with them about Abrante. When Kass spoke with
Maldonado again two days later, with the help of an
interpreter, Maldonado made no such statement.
