Week 4 Discussion Expounding the Constitution

Week 4 Discussion Expounding the Constitution

Q Welcome to week four's discussion. This week we'll be discussing an important issue from your constitutional law reading this week. Please note, a detailed answer to the below question requires knowledge of legal issues that are well beyond the scope of this course. You are only expected to know that content which is in our textbook and otherwise provided to you. Please make an initial response to the below question by Wednesday 9/12, and respond to at least three classmates' posts by Friday 9/14. Responses to an ongoing thread may count toward your three replies. In making your posts, please bear in mind the following: 1. All posts should be respectful and professional and use language appropriate for an academic environment. 2. While I do not prohibit discussion of political and social issues as these are often closely linked with criminal justice issues and merit our attention, please constrain your comments to the assigned question and remain respectful. Comments should focus on substantial and honest critiques of policy rather than attacks on political opponents. 3. You do not have to cite sources for discussion posts but may do so if you wish. Sources for discussion posts do not have to be scholarly but must be reputable. The Onion is not a reputable source. The New York Times or Wall Street Journal is. If you are unsure whether a source is appropriate, please ask. 4. You must complete all four posts (Initial response and three replies) to receive any credit for discussion assignments. The case of Miranda v. Arizona requires the police to read a suspect their rights when the police intend to question them and use the information obtained during questioning in court. If the police do not intend to question someone during an arrest, the Miranda warnings, contrary to popular belief, do not have to be read. However, out of an abundance of caution, some law enforcement agencies have instituted policies requiring the reading of Miranda rights to all suspects. If an agency head, would you institute such a policy? Why or why not?

I would not institute such a policy had I been an agency head. This is because the reading of the Miranda rights takes a lot of time. Moreover, the reading of the Miranda rights must never be always mandatory for every police officer because there might not be a situation of arrest always for every suspect. There can be a suspect called to the police station by a police officer by taking along the suspect. However, this does not mean that the Miranda rights have to be read to the suspect. This is because if there is a slight chance of resolving a case by interrogating a suspect with tricky questions; I think that every police officer must be given the right to do that.
