Carl Denson Jr., also known as the "Bicycle Killer," is a convicted murderer from Tallahassee, Florida. In November 2021, Denson fatally shot Jimmy Lunsford, a 55-year-old man, while he was sitting on a park bench at Carter Howell Strong Park. Denson, who was 24 at the time, was arrested shortly after the incident and charged with first-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

During police interrogation, Denson confessed to the murder. However, there was a legal dispute regarding the admissibility of his confession. At one point during the interrogation, Denson stated, "I just don't want to say nothing," which his defense argued was an invocation of his right to remain silent. The trial court initially suppressed the confession, but upon appeal, it was determined that Denson's statement was equivocal, and the suppression was reversed, allowing the confession to be admitted as evidence.

In December 2024, Denson was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison. This case highlights significant legal discussions about the nuances of a suspect's rights during police interrogations and the interpretation of their statements regarding the right to remain silent.
