Constitutional Issue ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

The Fifth Amendment of the Constitution guarantees that “no person . . . shall be

compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself. . . .” This right was made

part of the Bill of Rights to prevent a tyrannical government from forcing accused persons

to confess to crimes they may or may not have committed. Miranda’s case before the

Supreme Court was based on this Fifth Amendment protection. The Court accepted the

case in order to explore and clarify certain problems arising from earlier decisions related

to the rights of individuals taken into police custody. The precise question that the Court

explored was under what circumstances an interrogation may take place so that a confession made during the interrogation would be constitutionally admissible in a court of law.
