2.  Dates: Debated: Feb. 28, March 1 and 2, 1966 Decided: June 13, 1966  Ruling: The prosecution could not use Miranda's confession as evidence in a criminal trial because the police had failed to first inform Miranda of his right to an attorney and against self-incrimination

3.  Earl Warren  Ruling tendency: The rulings under chief justice Earl Warren ere extremely liberal and during his term his court was nick named “Warrens Court” because of the way he took charge. He made the Supreme Court a power center on a more even basis with Congress and the Presidency.

4.  On March 13, 1963, Ernesto Miranda was arrested in Phoenix Arizona based on evidence linking him to the kidnapping and rape of an eighteen year old woman. Before his interrogation the police never read him his rights, importantly never told him he had the right to remain silent. Miranda confessed to the murder and was put on trial.

5.  The fifth amendment protects a person against being compelled to be a witness against himself in a criminal case. By the phoenix police not reading Miranda his rights he was compelled to be a witness to himself, this violating the fifth amendment.

6. The court option stated that since Miranda was never read his rights any confession could not be used. This was shocking to the people of the united states because they just let a murder and rapist free. The people couldn’t understand why they lwt him go. It may not of been the right thing to do, but under the constitution it had to be done.

7.  This court case made it became mandatory that before a police officer arrest you, they must read you your rights, now called the “Maranda rights”. It has become second nature for police officers to read you spur rights before arresting you so not many cases like this pop up anymore.
