Miranda v. Arizona established that a suspect's waiver of rights must be informed and intentional. In order to ensure this, the Court established a precedent requiring police to inform people in police custody of their constitutional rights prior to questioning.

Miranda v. Arizona, 384 US 436 (1966)

It is mandatory to explain to an accused his or her relevant Fifth and Sixth Amendment constitutional rights against self-incrimination and to consult with an attorney prior to questioning.

Update

The Miranda ruling has been revised somewhat by subsequent Supreme Court decisions. On June 1, 2010, the Roberts' Court released the opinion for Berghuis v. Thompkins,08-1470 (2010), which held a defendant must invoke his right to remain silent (by stating he wants to remain silent), rather than waive it (by explicitly agreeing to answer questions before interrogation).
