It has always been my understanding that a person MUST be read these rights, however I've learned though this board & a recent personal experience, that this is not so.
My 17 year old daughter is taking law in high school, and right in her book it states that a person MUST be read Miranda Rights.
This is mostly a curiosity question, can somebody explain how we could be all misled about these rights, through media, TV, and even schoolbooks? I think this needs to be addressed in my daughter's classroom, as the info in the books must be wrong? And what exactly is the purpose of these rights, if the police do not have to give them? It's very confusing. Thanks to all, I just love this board! It's so informative.
