There could be several answers to this question because the Warren Court heard quite a few cases involving suspects' or defendants' rights at different phases of the pre-arrest and arrest process. My hunch is you may be asking about Ernesto Miranda, petitioner of Miranda v. Arizona, (1966), who confessed to police without knowing his constitutional rights protecting against self incrimination and the availability of counsel. The decision in this case resulted in law enforcement personnel being required to read a person his or her rights before being detained. These are known as Miranda Rights.

Case Citation:

Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966)

How can supreme court decisions be overthrown?

Court decisions can be overturned by higher courts, with the highest being the Supreme Court. Once the Supreme Court has issued a ruling, it can only be overturned by another Supreme Court ruling if the court agrees to hear that case or a similar case again. It is also possible for Congress to pass a law or constitutional amendment (with the help of the states, which must ratify any amendment), which can effectively overturn a Supreme Court decision by altering the law on which the decision was based.
