Griffin (Manslaughter in the first degree; “On appeal, the defendant claims that (1) the trial court improperly instructed the jury that ‘self-defense does not encompass a preemptive strike’ and (2) the state improperly infringed upon his constitutional right to remain silent when, in violation of Doyle v. Ohio, 426 U.S. 610, 619, 96 S. Ct. 2240, 49 L. Ed. 2d 91 (1976), it impermissibly commented on his post-Miranda silence during rebuttal closing argument. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.”)
