Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is known as the Miranda Warning, which is required by the Fifth and Sixth Amendments to the US Constitution. It states that a person has the right to remain silent and to have an attorney present during police questioning. Failure to provide this warning can result in any statements made during interrogation being inadmissible in court.
