Ernesto Miranda was arrested on charges of kidnapping, rape and armed robbery in Maricopa County, Arizona in 1963, and sentenced to 20-30 years in prison. He later appealed his conviction to the US Supreme Court on the grounds that his confession should have been excluded at trial because he wasn't aware of his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination. In Miranda v. Arizona, 384 US 436 (1966), the Court held that suspects had to be advised of their constitutional rights and be able to make an informed choice before being interrogated.

Were there any witnesses in the Miranda v Arizona case?

Yes, there were witnesses who testified against Ernesto Miranda at both trials. After the US Supreme Court ruled that the confession used to convict him in his first trial was inadmissible in court because it was given in ignorance of his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, the first jury verdict was vacated and the case was remanded for a new trial. In the second trial, witness testimony and other evidence were sufficient to result in a second guilty verdict. Ernesto Miranda was sentenced to 20-30 years in prison at his second trial, and released on parole in 1972. He was killed in a barroom fight in 1976.
