Although there is no "legally defined" difference between the two words, and it is purely a matter of semantics, you could say that it occurs at the point at which the person being "interviewed" is advised of their "Miranda Rights." After that point it becomes an 'interrogation.' An interrogation, in criminal law, is the process of questions asked by police to a person arrested or suspected to seek answers to a crime. Such person is entitled to be informed of his rights, including right to have counsel present, and the consequences of his answers. If the police fail or neglect to give these warnings, the questions and answers are not admissible in evidence a the trial or hearing of the arrested person

Your son was questioned for an investigation over 15 months ago and arrested last night on a warrant over 1 year old he has never had his rights read to him so Where do you stand?

Contact an attorney. Whether or not he was given his rights isn't material to the warrant or arrest. A person needs to be advised of their right before any custodial interrogation or any statements (and their fruit) may be excluded from court. If it was 15 months between the investigatory interview and the arrest then the original interview was probably not a 'custodial interrogation.'
