Complete the following template by replacing the bracketed text with your responses.
Case Name:
Miranda v. Arizona
Summary: In 1963 Ernesto Miranda was arrested at home and taken into custody. Once in custody he was not mirandarized. After being interrogated he signed a written confession. Due to not being mirandarized he was never told that he had the right to remain silent, or that he had the right to a lawyer when being questioned, and present during the trial. He was found guilty at trial. He put in an appeal, but the appeal was affirmed because he didn’t ask for counsel.
Impact of the case: With the Miranda v. Arizona this case is significant to policing due to the fact that the Miranda rights were involved. Miranda rights protect individuals from self-incrimination and protect police departments from having cases thrown out. Miranda v. Arizona is the case that made sure police read the Miranda rights to people that they are arresting because if they don’t read the Miranda rights the police could lose their case in court due to the fact that they violated the suspect 5th Amendment (right to remain silent) and their 6th Amendment (right to an attorney). The procedure of this case is how Ernesto Miranda was arrested without the reading of his rights. The police claimed that he signed a written confession of his crime. Miranda was sent to prison for rape and kidnapping. He appealed the court’s decision. The courts gave him another trial and the only difference from this one and the first one was his confession was not used against him. The practice of criminal justice in this case was to make sure that if police arrest someone that they read the Miranda rights and make sure the person that got arrested understands them as they read to them
(Mauro, 2006).
Case Name: Miller v. Alabama
Summary: This case involves two 14-year-old males that was charged with arson and murder. In 2003,
Evan Miller and friend Colby Smith tried to rob a neighbor. When the neighbor Cole Cannon tried to stop the boys, they brutally beat him causing a damaging blow to the head. Miller covered Cannon with a sheet before both boys fled the scene. They then later returned to the scene to set Cannon’s trailer home on fire. Cannon died of smoke inhalation. Miller received a life without parole sentence.
Impact of the case: Miller v. Alabama didn’t completely erase the possibility of juveniles receiving life without parole sentence. This case had a great impact on the justice system. The case against Miller was made up on Miller’s actions that he came from a violent family home where he was physically and sexually abused while being neglected. It was also pointed out that another reason for his actions was because he tried to take his life when he was roughly six years old. This case was made to determine if sentencing a 14-year-old to life in prison without parole was cruel and an unusual punishment. Miller was sentenced to life without parole by the supreme court due to the heinous crime. This case had a 5-4 vote that the 8th amendment forbids life without parole for a defendant who is less than 18 years of age. The supreme court still decided to give Miller life in prison without parole (Campbell & Gouldin, 2014).
