School liaison officer's rights?

Question

I was wondering, does a school liaison officer or resource officer have to give you your rights before questioning? I was asked to give out information about what happened with an event with me and two of my friends, evidence that would get me in trouble. But I was wondering if they had to read me the right to remain silent.

I only thought of it after the questioning but if they are supposed to, shouldn't all evidence be able to be dropped.

Answer 1

Where I live the school district has their own police dept and if the are just simply asking questions you don't have to answer to any of them. If you are being arrested than your Miranda must be read IF they continue to question you. If they don't question you than they don't have to read them to you. All you have to say is " I refuse to talk to because my constitutional rights allow that". Watch him put his tail in his *** and walk away. If he were smart that is.

Answer 2

Technically you have the Right to remain silent at all times.  You don't have to answer any questions.  If you were walking down the street and an officer said, "How are you,"  You don't have an obligation to answer.  You NEVER have an obligation to answer any questions posed by a police officer.

However, an officer does not have to read you your Rights unless you are in custody, not free to leave.

Answer 3

Only if you were in custody and not free to leave

Answer 4

The in custody answers are correct about Miranda warnings, no need.

Unlike one of the above answers I will tell you that in the US you do have to answer and officer's question about identification, such as who are you.

You do not have to say anything in response to a question like "hows it going"? but as to identity you do.

Also if you do not answer simple questions like "what are you doing around here"? but not answering can raise questions  that the officer can use to articulate his reasons for searching you for weapons (Terry v. Ohio)and then using what they find against you in court
