If someone is handcuffed do they need to be read their Miranda Rights?

Kenneth G. Wincorn
Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
The effect of not having the Miranda rights read is that statements that are made after arrest may be excluded by the judge at trial. If the statements are necessary for proving guilt it may result in an acquittal.

Can police change your charges after they arrest you?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney David Lee Smith (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of David L. Smith
All the police do is investigate the crime at the moment or shortly after the crime has taken place and arrest those who are involved. They then write the "report" and turn-it over to the District Attorney. The DA then decides what charges are to be brought against you based on the facts outlined in the report. In other words the charging document can be either the same as the police recommend, worse (more charges) than the police recommend in their report or better (less or no charges) than the police recommended in their report. "Miranda" rights are only required when the police are going to question you (about the crime)when you are in a custodial setting (not free to leave), otherwise all of your voluntary statements will be used against you.

What should I do if a guard assaulted me while I was in jail?

Answered by attorney Lawrence Thomas Lewis (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Lawrence Lewis, P.C.
You were assaulted when papers were slapped out of your hands at the jail? Tell us what you were in jail for. I would love to hear that. Because maybe you think a jury would care about papers being slapped out of your hands, IF you are accused of shooting at someone. The jury will not.
