The filing of the complaint and the obtaining of a judicially
approved arrest warrant by the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office
was a critical stage in the proceedings, and pursuant to
N.J.S.A. 2A:4A-39B(1), P.M.P. had the right to counsel and could
not waive that right except in the presence of and after
consultation with his attorney counsel. Therefore, the trial
court properly granted P.M.P.’s motion to suppress his
statement.
