Does a cop have to read me my rights if I was put in cuffs but I did not go to jail?

Answered by attorney Jacob Thomas Erickson
Criminal Law lawyer at Smith, Paulson, O'Donnell Erickson, PLC
The police are not required to read you your Miranda rights unless two things are present. First, you have to be in custody. If you were placed in handcuffs you were most likely in custody. Second, there must be interrogation. That means that the police have to ask you questions while you are in custody. If those two things are present, then the police are not allowed to use anything you say in response to their questions against you. That does not mean that everything you say can be excluded. There are exceptions that apply to driving while under the influence matters, and your statements can be used against you if you volunteer them. For example, if the police officer puts you in handcuffs and you look at him and say, "I did it! I am guilty.", those statements can be used against you, because you volunteered them
