Can police change your charges after they arrest you?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jared Altman (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Jared Altman
Yes. They can change the charges. The remedy for not being read your rights ("Mirandized") is that any admissions found to be involuntary that you may have made to the police cannot be used against you. It does not mean an automatic dismissal of the charges against you. The police know this so they don't bother Mirandizing you if they don't need your statements or a confession to prove your guilt.

What am i able to do if i got accused falsely and arrested without my miranda rights

Warren S. Hecht
Answered by attorney Warren S. Hecht
Criminal Law lawyer at Warren S. Hecht
First of all unlike what they show on TV and in the movies, you can be arrested without being read your Miranda rights. If they do not read your Miranda rights then they cannot use any statements that you make once you are in custody. Also, although  I do not know what you are being charged with, nevertheless,  I highly recommend that you obtain an attorney.

Can the prosecution call a hostile witness in a criminal defense trial?

Eric R. Chandler
Answered by attorney Eric R. Chandler
Criminal Law lawyer at Chandler Conway, P.C., L.L.O.
Yes, a prosecutor can call a witness that does not want to cooperate; however, the prosecution cannot call a witness with the sole intention of impeaching them.
