What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
Would appreciate anyone providing the answers to these legal questions on matters I never thought of before and am just interested.
1. If a person questioned by the police demands a lawyer and the ploice end questioning but the person says he changed is mind and he doesn't want a lawyer for the time being, are the police allowed to still question him and if so are statements made allowed in court? If they are allowed to question him must they Miranda him again?
2. If a girlfriend says to a boyfriend "You ought to kill your father" and he does it, is she an accomplice? If she said it a week earlier and didn't say it again, is she an accomplice? IF she said she didn't mean it and was just blowing off steam, is that a defense? If she said it a year ago, doesn't say it again and he murders his father, is she an accomplice?
3. If a brother and sister make plans to kill their father and the sister tells him she changed her mind, is she still responsible if he kills him? If so, would the best thing she could do before any crime is committed is go to the police and say she planned to kill her father ,changed her mind and told her brother that she won't do it? Will that still get her charged with a crime if the murder wasn't carried out?
Thanks for any answers.
