3. Miranda Warning (1966) *”Warnings must be administered before questioning by a law enforcement officer during a custodial interrogation or when the suspect’s freedom is significantly deprived.” Warnings Include Right to remain silent Statements made may be used against him or her at trial

5. Escobedo v. Illinois (1964) The Supreme Court ruled “that when a criminal investigation moves from a general inquiry concerning an unsolved crime to one that focuses on a particular individual or group of individuals, with the purpose of eliciting incriminating utterances, warnings regarding the defendant’s right to counsel need to be administered, under the assistance of counsel obligation of the Sixth Amendment. This requirement is made applicable in state criminal action through the due process provision of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Escobedo decision created the “focus test.”

6. After Escobedo decision, Miranda v. Arizona (1966) The High Court shifted from the “focus test” articulated in Escobedo v. Illinois, under the “totality of circumstances” approach based on the Sixth Amendment, to the Fifth Amendment based on the prohibition against self-incrimination.

This clause has also been used to recognize: (1) substantive due process rights, such as parental and marriage rights; and (2) procedural due process rights requiring that certain steps, such as a hearing, be followed before a person's "life, liberty, or property" can be taken away.
