("This [c]ourt is bound by the circuit court's factual findings unless they are clearly erroneous."); id. ("This [c]ourt does not reevaluate the facts based on its own view of the preponderance of the evidence but simply determines whether the circuit court's ruling is supported by any evidence."); id. at 47, 681 S.E.2d at 26 ("On appeal, the circuit court's decision as to the voluntariness of the statement will not be reversed unless so erroneous as to demonstrate an abuse of discretion."). �
