Miranda v. Arizona
Miranda v. Arizona-suspected criminals must be read their rights
Miranda v. Arizona, (1966).
The Miranda Rights are an example of a supreme court precedent, set by a historic case in 1966. Before 1966 there was no national standard for informing a suspect of his rights. After the case, all law enforcement agencies adopted a policy of reading people their Miranda rights.
The case Miranda v. Arizona established the requirement that individuals taken into police custody must be informed of their rights to remain silent and to have legal counsel present during questioning. This ruling aimed to protect the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. By ensuring that suspects are aware of these rights, the decision helps prevent coercive interrogation practices and upholds the principle of fair legal representation for accused persons. The "Miranda warnings" are now a critical component of law enforcement procedures in the U.S.
"The right to remain silent" is one of the Miranda rights, established by the Supreme Court in 1966.
The stipulation requiring that accused persons be informed of their right to remain silent stems from the U.S. Supreme Court case Miranda v. Arizona (1966). This decision established the "Miranda Rights," which mandate that individuals in custody must be informed of their rights, including the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney, to ensure they are not compelled to incriminate themselves. This safeguard is rooted in the Fifth Amendment, which protects against self-incrimination.
The Zenger case established freedom of press.
