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

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
Miranda Rights are only triggered if a suspect is in police custody subject to interrogation, i.e. being asked incriminating questions. Contrary to popular opinion or what may be shown on TV, Miranda warnings do not have to be given everytime someone is placed under arrest. Miranda violations only serve to suppress (or keep out) statements elicited as a result of a Miranda violation and possibly evidence that was obtained because of the violation. A Miranda violation will never affect the validity of the arrest or be enough to dismiss the charge itself unless the violation suppresses so much evidence that the prosecutor would not be able to meet their burden of proof. Have an experienced criminal attorney review the record to see if you have a claim if you are in doubt.

Do you have to be released after 72 hours after being taken in for Obstruction of Justice?

Answered by attorney Jared Altman (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Jared Altman
One has to be arraigned before a judge "without delay" (i.e. less than 24 hours). A sworn statement against the defendant must then be filed within five days. If either of these does not take place, then the defendant must be released. That is assuming that there is no other basis to hold the defendant in custody.

Can cops search my home if they think I'm on parole?

Answered by attorney Seth David Schraier
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Seth D. Schraier, P.C.
If the cops have probable cause to believe you are on parole then they can search your house. However, if it is later shown that you were not on parole when the cops came to search, then it is likely that if they found any criminal evidence it would be thrown out from being used against you.
