What are my Miranda Rights?
You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will
be used against you in the court of law, you have the right to an
attorney, if you can't afford one, an attorney (an assistant public
defender) will be appointed to you. As a side note, most members of
the public think that public defenders are not real lawyers. Many of
them are great lawyers, but they have a lot of cases. I'm a former
Palm Beach assistant public defender.
Does an Officer have to read me my
Miranda Rights?
No. The police don't have to read you your Miranda rights. The only
time the police should is if you are in custody (not free to leave)
and they're interrogating you (asking you questions designed to
illicit an incriminating response). If they don't, and those
circumstances are present, then any statements you make should be
thrown out of court. That's the remedy - suppression of your
statements.
Does my case go away if the Officer
doesn't read me my Miranda Rights?
Probably not unless your statements are all the evidence the police
have against you. Generally, your statements will be suppressed
(won't be allowed at trial), but the state will continue to
prosecute you without your statements.
Do I have to Answer Questions from
Police Officers?
No. Always ask for a lawyer before talking with police. Never
volunteer any information even if you are innocent. There are many
innocent people in prison. Some of them have been released after
serving years in prison because DNA evidence exonerated them.
The Officer told me I would get a
better deal if I talked...Is This True?
No, not necessarily. The officer is not the one who charges people
with crimes. It is the State Attorney's office or the United States
Attorney's Office. The officer doesn't sentence defendants either,
that's the province of the trial judge. Police lie to defendants all
the time to get confessions and guess what?...it's legal for cops to
lie.
