Supreme Court Case: Miranda V. Arizona

Miranda V. Arizona has been a case that impacted our police officers and offenders and is still in place today. In 1996 Phoenix Arizona Ernesto Miranda a 18 year old school drop out with a 8th grade reading level was convicted of kidnaping and rapping a 18 year old girl.. He was a troubled teen growing up convicted of small offenses but this offense made the headlights. The women who was raped went home and told her family, one day her brother sees a car that matches the description and part of the license plate Ernesto Miranda’s car matching the description and was asked to come down to the police station for questioning. Ernesto Miranda lines up with other men on a line and the women says “that looks like him but I would have to hear his voice to fully identify him”, As the integration went on he was told that a women had positively accused him, which was false. Not only did the police lie to him but after that the investigation was on for two hours, he then signed a written confession. He was found guilty and He later states that he had no right to counsel and was never read his rights this case was taken to the Arizona supreme court. The court supported the ruling so Miranda and his lawyer now took it to the united states supreme court , the constitutional issue was the 5th amendment establish the people’s rights to not have witness against them self and the 6th amendment which guarantees criminal defendants the right to an attorney was also violated. In the Supreme

The Miranda v Arizona case was combined with three other similar cases. When the Supreme Court handed down the decision 5-4 in Miranda's favor, the resulting rights afforded to those being questioned or detained by police became popularly known as Miranda Rights. Miranda Rights must include the following as described by Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren:

Arizona was being appealed because even though Miranda out of his own free will confessed that yes he did rape and kidnapped Patty McGee. How ever rape victims in the state of Arizona have to resist to the utmost for it to be considered rape and McGee had not been able to say that she had done so ,and because of that Alvin Moore immediately appealed the case to the Arizona Supreme Court. Gribben, Mark. "MIRANDA VS ARIZONA: THE CRIME THAT CHANGED AMERICA .Alvin Moore asked was the statement that Miranda made voluntarily or forced on by the police who was interrogating him and was he asked in his brief ,a mexican man of little education wasn't told and so did not afforded all the safeguards to his rights as an American citizen provided by the Constitution of the United States. However by the time the Arizona high court got to consider Mirandas appeal in 1965, the U.S Supreme Court under Liberal Earl Warren had put in favor of the side of defendant's(Miranda) rights. The reason he had done so is because they had taken a step towards Moores trial claim that the suspect in case (Miranda),is entitled to a lawyer during police questioning and he was not given one when they were questioning him.Gribben, Mark.

Miranda v. Arizona was a case where Ernesto Miranda was accused of raping a women. At the time of his arrest he did not know his rights and that he had the right to remain silent and get a lawyer. He confessed orally and in a written form, but he never knew his

In the case Miranda vs. Arizona. This case goes against the 5th and 6th amendments. Miranda says that the police had violated his 5th Amendment right to remain silent and his 6th Amendment right to legal counsel. Miranda addressed the Escobedo rule which states evidence obtained from an illegally obtained confession is inadmissible in court. Also addressed was the Gideon rule which states all felony defendants have the right to attorney. But the police say that Miranda completely voluntarily signed the confession.

The court argued that the case was not about whether Miranda was guilty of the charges or not (he obviously confessed). Rather they argued that the case was about the way in which the interrogation was derived. The court’s ruling was meant to deal with the mistreatment of suspects by policemen during interrogation. Policemen are notorious for mistreating suspects in questioning (alovardohistory). Prior

In March of 1963, the Phoenix Police Department brought in an accused to their departments to investigate him. Upon arriving to the police department two detectives interrogated him about the rape of a mildly, handicap young woman and a kidnap. After two hours of interrogating the suspect, Ernesto Miranda, confessed to the crime just after the detectives told him the victim had identified him in a lineup. Ernesto Miranda was found guilty of both crimes and was sentenced to twenty to thirty years in prison. In 1966, three years later, Miranda’s sentence was overturned by the Supreme Court due to the fact that Miranda was not notified about his fifth or sixth amendment. His fifth amendment gave him the right to avoid self-incrimination by

1966 Miranda v. Arizona ruled that anything said to police by a defendant could not be used against the defendant unless said defendant had been read the Miranda Warnings and had acknowledged that he or she understood and waived these

Arizona 384 U.S. 436 (1966) case, Ernesto Miranda was arrested for the kidnapping and rape of a young woman in Phoenix, Arizona. After two hours of interrogation by police officers, Miranda signed a confession to the rape charge on forms that included the typed statement: "I do hereby swear that I make this statement voluntarily and of my own free will, with no threats, coercion, or promises of immunity, and with full knowledge of my legal rights, understanding any statement I make may be used against me." However, he was not told of his right to have counsel present during questioning or his right to remain silent, therefore during trial his court-appointed lawyer objected to the written and oral confessions. His objection was over-ruled and Miranda was convicted to 20-30

This case is considered a landmark because it changed the policies when theolice arrest you because they make sure to always read you your rights so they don’t have another case like this one. Another case that was impacted by Miranda vs. Arizona was in 1997 Oliverio Martinez was shot by a policeman in a struggle, he was questioned later but didn’t answer any questions because he wasn’t read his “Miranda Rights”. If the Miranda Vs. Arizona case didn’t happen Oliverio Martinez could’ve answered questions without being read his rights because he could have been not aware of that he had the right to remain silent.

In this case Miranda was not told his rights, and he served as a witness against himself. Also, as soon as he was arrested he should have been read his rights and should have known that he had the right to not speak until he had an attorney with him. Miranda did not know this at the time he was arrested. Miranda’s team appealed his case to the Supreme Court of Arizona, the highest state court in Arizona. The court upheld the lower court's decision, therefore keeping the punishment. About 3 years later, the US Supreme Court read over the Miranda V Arizona case. They had seen the paper that had Miranda's confession written on saying “this confession was made with full knowledge of my legal rights, understanding any statement I make may be used against me.” However, they were certain that Miranda was not told his rights by the

Miranda v. arizona is a watershed moment in law enforcement because it is a right to silence warning given by police in the united states, to criminal suspect in police custody before they are statement against them in criminal proceeding. My other evidence is that it is important to say the miranda right to a criminals because if you don't say the rights to them while he or she is getting arrested than there will be no charges for the man or women and likely get released from jail and he or she can go free like nothing happen so that is why it is important for an officer to say the miranda rights. My other piece of evidence is that in an article i read said that in 1966 the supreme court decide the historic case of miranda v. arizona

Throughout the interrogation, the police did not tell Miranda about his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination or his Sixth Amendment right to an attorney (“Miranda v. Arizona Podcast”). Miranda was question for two hours without a lawyer. Miranda eventually gave the police details of the crime that closely matched the victims story. He agreed to write his confession in a written statement which he wrote out under the words, “this confession was made with full knowledge of my legal rights, understanding any statement I make may be used against me” (“Miranda Rights”). His confession was used as evidence when he was tried and convicted for the crime by the court.

On March 1963 a 22-year-old man by the name of Ernesto Miranda was arrested in Phoenix, Az for kidnapping and raping an eighteen year old girl. At anytime from being interrogated was Miranda read his rights, and he confessed his crime. In the event that he had signed a confession paper that claimed that Miranda had been read his rights which was not true. The 5th amendment states, “... to the United States Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights and protects a person against being compelled to be a witness against himself in a criminal case”(Wikipedia). This illustrates how we the people are protected by the constitution, and have the right to not speak until an attorney is present. The Miranda v Arizona definitely ensures justice

Second, arguments against Arizona State: II. Miranda appealed to the Arizona Supreme Court. A. His public defender claimed that the police had unconstitutionally obtained Miranda’s confession. a. His confession was against the Fifth Amendment which gives a criminal suspect the right to refuse "to be a witness against
