D was indicted for embezzlement; fraudulent breach of trust; and larceny. At trial, D denied that he had taken any money wrongfully from the boxes. D introduced other evidence to show that other people had an opportunity to take money from the boxes. D also claimed that the officers did not advise him of his legal and constitutional rights, and he further said that he did not give them any statement. D was convicted and appealed.
