     This case had to do with an Ernest Miranda who raped a Patty McGee*. After extracting a written confession from the rapist about the situation, Miranda’s lawyer argued that it was not valid since the Phoenix Police Department failed to read Miranda his rights, also in violation of the Sixth Amendment which is the right to counsel. Some factors that helped support Miranda’s arguments were that the suspect had requested and been denied an opportunity to consult with a lawyer; the suspect had not been effectively warned about his right to remain silent; and an incriminating statement must have been given by the suspect. The author of the Arizona court’s decision, former U.S. Senator and

The Supreme Court Case Miranda V. Arizona is very famous. This case took place in the state of Arizona in 1966. A man named Ernesto Miranda was arrested. He was accused of raping a girl. The lady described him and the car he drove. Later she even saw the car she believed it was and reported the license plate. The number was registered to Ernesto's girlfriend. Before this arrest for rape, Miranda had previous run ins with the law. He had once served a year for for a different rape. There was a line up, in which the victim couldn't positively identify Miranda as the attacker. He was still interrogated anyway and told he was picked out. After being arrested the only thing that happened was that he was given paper, and would need to write down a confession.

Miranda vs. Arizona is one of the most crucial U.S. Supreme Court cases ever held in the United States. The case causes the Supreme Court to redefine law enforcement procedures before interrogations. The decision that was reached by the Supreme Court addressed four different cases involving custodial interrogations. All of these cases are similar in the fact that there was a custodial interrogation where the suspect was not properly informed of his constitutional rights to remain silent and have a presence of an attorney. Additionally, in all of the cases besides Stewart v. California, the conviction was affirmed without any belief that there was a violation of constitutional rights.

There once was a point in time where people would be prosecuted without letting them defend themselves. They would be taken to jail, torture, or even put to death with no trial. Today, we have the bill of rights. The bill of rights are the first ten amendments that hold basic rights for everyone in America. The sixth amendment is used in every single court case that goes on in the United States of America.

The United States of America prides itself on being a nation in which the people’s rights are put first and foremost. We can speak how we like and do almost anything we want, which are luxuries that people in many other countries are not given. Our Miranda Rights are an example of a guarantee that the American people are given that, at first, was not widespread throughout the world. It was Miranda vs. Arizona that established this vital warning that would enforce the constitutional rights of not only criminals, but of all citizens, and ensure that no American would be incriminated against without knowing their rights.

In the landmark court case, Miranda v. Arizona, the United States Supreme Court held that when a person is taken into custody of the police, or has been deprived of their freedom of action in any significant way, they must be advised of their constitutional rights. Reason being is because the court realized that in custodial interrogations, the compulsion for a person to potentially incriminate their self is apparent. Therefore, without proper safeguards, the process of custodial interrogation would compel an individual to speak where they would otherwise not do so freely. In the years following Miranda, there has been considerable controversy regarding the extent of Miranda’s prophylactic shield, and under what circumstances the safeguards of Miranda will apply to juveniles.

In the case of the State v. Wells, Defendant Paul Ellis Wells was charged with a DUI in California for operating a motor vehicle under the influence of marijuana and causing serious bodily injury to three other victims. At first glance, this case seems obvious that the defendant’s negligence at the wheel was caused by him being intoxicated. Further research shows that the defendant was diagnosed by a doctor as being prediabetic. In my opinion, the actus reus elements of the crime of DUI would be that the defendant did test positive for marijuana in a blood test conducted which in any state would be considered a DUI because it is obviously a crime to operate a motor vehicle under any substance that can alter your mind. On the other hand,
