Best Answer

There is no "Miranda Rights" amendment.

What are known as the Miranda warning (it's not a unique right) are derived from a court case, Miranda v Arizona, which apply to protections afforded under the 5th and 6th amendment. The right to remain silent protects people from self incriminating themselves, which is in the 5th amendment. The right to an attorney, and a fair trial, come from the 6th. A Miranda Warning is a notification by the police of your rights under the 5th and 6th Amendments, specifically as to applying them while in police custody.

The 5th and 6th amendments support the Miranda rights. The 5th protects from self-incrimination, the right to remain silent. The 6th asserts the right to an attorney, and the right to a court-appointed attorney if you want one.
