Description
Argued September 24, 2002 Opinion The defendant, Peter Luurtsema, was convicted, after a jury trial, of attempted sexual assault in the first degree in violation of General Statutes §§ 53a-49 (a) (2) 1 and 53a-70 (a) (1), 2 kidnapping in the first degree in violation of General Statutes § 53a-92 (a) (2) (A), 3 assault in the second degree in violation of General Statutes § 53a-60 (a) (1), 4 and, following a plea of nolo contendere, of being a persistent dangerous felony offender under General Statutes (Rev. to 1997) § 53a-40 (a). 5 On appeal 6 from the judgment of the trial court sentencing him to a total effective sentence of forty-five years imprisonment, 7 the defendant claims that: (1) the trial court improperly denied his motion to suppress the statement he gave to the police following his warrantless home arrest; and (2) the evidence was insufficient to convict him of kidnapping. We affirm the judgment of the trial court. The trial court, Mulcahy, J., denied the defendant's motion to suppress his statement. Thereafter, the case was tried to a jury on part A of the information, and the defendant was convicted of attempted sexual assault in the first degree, kidnapping in the first degree and assault in the second degree. The defendant then entered a plea of nolo contendere to part B of the information charging him with being a persistent dangerous felony offender, and the trial court, Clifford, J., accepted the plea. Thereafter, the trial court, Mulcahy, J., rendered judgment on the verdict and the plea. This appeal followed.
