  1. Yes.

    If a police officer marandizes you, and you continue to speak to the police, interrogators, or other persons  then you have decided not to invoke your right to remain silent, therefore your right against self incrimination, if you had done something illegal.

    Plice officers may ask you any questions you want, and you have the choice whether to answer those questions or not, if you do nothing to protect your freedoms, and listen to and take the advice of the miranda warning, then you have only yourself to blame for anything that is used in court against you.


  2. Yes, if you follow the terms of this act. It is up to the accused to decide what path they want to follow as to getting an attorney or answer questions.

  3.    It is the best protection that we have. Unfortunately it is abused by law enforcement in a lot more cases than it should be. Everyone should be taught in school about the protections that they have under the Miranda Citation, and to exercise those rights anytime they are dealing with law enforcement. Especially if you haven't violated any laws. There are too many times the police develop tunnel vision and will make the evidence fit the suspect even if it is the wrong suspect.

  4. Yes!

  5. Yes, once you are read your rights it is up to you on what to do next.  The thing to do is say nothing, get a lawyer, and have the lawyer answer all questions for you.
