Miranda v. Arizona (1966) established the requirement that individuals taken into police custody must be informed of their rights to silence and legal counsel before interrogation. This landmark Supreme Court decision aimed to protect the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and ensure fair treatment in the justice system. The ruling led to the creation of "Miranda warnings," which have become a fundamental part of law enforcement procedures in the United States. Its significance lies in its reinforcement of individual rights and the principle of due process.
