Miranda v. arizona (66): rights given to every prisoner once they are arrested, miranda rights . Went to sc because he didn"t know he had the right to be silent, or that he had the right to a lawyer. Sc said that just b/c you"re ignorant of your rights, doesn"t mean you don"t have them. Retried, sentenced to 11 yrs of prison. Spontaneous declaration- some criminals got clever- started blurting out confessions as soon as they were arrested, claiming they were not read rights, as to get out of sentence. Sc ruled that you cannot do that- give the officers a chance to name rights.
