Ark. R. Crim. P. 4.7
Reporter’s Notes, 2012: This rule was added in 2012 in response to the decision in Clark v. State, 374 Ark. 292, 287 S.W.3d 567 (2008). The rule does not mandate the recording of all custodial statements. Instead, it allows the trial court to consider the failure to record a statement in determining the admissibility of the statement.
