Summary

In People v. Pugach (16 N.Y.2d 504, app. dsmd. Pugach v. New York, 383 U.S. 575) the eavesdropping by police based on a judicial order and affidavit rather similar to that in the present case played a small part in an overwhelmingly strong record which contained many other similar admissions made by the defendant.
