Miranda Warning


Listen Later

Miranda vs Arizona established the Miranda Warning. But nobody talks about the man and the crime. Ernest Miranda wasn't some innocent man who was simply bullied by police. He was a recidivist with a multitude of criminal cases prior to the case that made him famous. Miranda was a serial attacker of women, working his way up to rape. But prior to giving his statement, no attorney was offered and the rest is history.
