Miranda Rights

Book Abstract by: AcaDemon     


This paper examines how Miranda vs. Arizona is easily one of the five most significant cases of the 20th century and changed
the use of involuntary confession in court. It looks at how there are few elements of law as well-known as the Miranda Rights ,which are recited in every episode of popular television shows, such as "Cops", "Law and Order", "The Shield", etc., and how most people have managed to know them almost completely by heart. It also examines how, more than anything else, it has become virtually impossible for a police department or federal agency to get away with misstating or even foregoing reading a suspect the Miranda rights and how it has helped to create an atmosphere in which people are far more aware of their rights than ever before.
